Good idea. I also sent a link to the PHP FAQ.

From reading the messages from Stephen, I thought he has installed PHP via
the pkgsrc. But his browser is still asking him if he wants to save the
file or open it with an application.

I have not installed PHP4 via pkgsrc, but I have installed php3 via
pkgsrc. This is what I had to do:

I installed ap-php-3.0.7 and php-3.0.7.

And edited /usr/pkg/etc/httpd/httpd.conf to add (in the correct places):
 LoadModule php3_module lib/httpd/mod_php3.so
 AddModule mod_php3.c
 AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3 .php 

The ideas for PHP4 are the same. Since Stephen already has the
 AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
line, I assume this is also needed:
 LoadModule php4_module lib/httpd/mod_php4.so
 AddModule mod_php4.c
