Problem downloading - Please help!
« on: December 07, 2011, 10:59:13 am »
Hello - Last week I was able to download lesson plans with no troubles. This week the files are being saved on my computer as index.php files, and they cannot be opened using powerpoint or word. Has anyone else had this problem? Any ideas for how to fix it?

Thanks.

This has been mentioned many times already.  Use the search function!

The simplest way to fix the problem is change the name from "index.php" when you save it, or rename the file after it has been downloaded.

Oh, and Mrs. Frisby, I don't have the option of renaming it...it gets saved as a php no matter what I name it...
