If your browser is trying to download the file it's because the web server isn't configured to recognize the file type. In your httpd.conf file you should have a line similar to the following:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php3 .phtml In order to do what you are wanting, you also need a line similar to the following: AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps That alone won't finish the job. You also have to make a copy of the .php file with a .phps extension. Or, of you are on Linux, you can simply do an 'ln -s original.php original.phps' and use the .phps link to display the source. This is the way apache does it. You can also do the same thing manually in a php script using highlight_file() or as already mentioned, the show_source() command which is just an alias for highlight_file(). Either way will produce the same results since Apache simply send the command through mod_php. This is really more of an apache question involving php.
