i just installed php and when i try to load a php file into the browser through apache, the file downloads instead of being displayed.
is this an apache problem or a problem with my php install?
This is a problem with your php install (you need to make sure you edit your httpd.conf with the information from the php install documentation).
More information > http://www.php.net/installation
You may also want to read the numerous install guides/tutorials that are on the web -- I have written my own at the site in my signature (mine discusses your problem and possible solutions). Lots of information out there if you google :)
