asp files F12 - download file????????

When I have an asp file open in mx2004 and press F12 to view the file, i am asked to download the file!

Can anyone help me stop this happening please?

This usually means that you have not properly set up your testing server.

Just tell me how you have defined your testing server.

Also, tell me what happens when you point your browser at http://localhost?

testing server folder - C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\

url prefix - http://localhost/

this look okay?

at the moment?

This looks OK. When you point your browser at http://localhost what do you
see?
