That looks like a wrong mime-type.. Can you check the response header (eg, via LiveHTTPHeaders extension in FireFox)? BTW, what *exactly* is the browser prompting you to save (ie, the "home page")? > I f I browse > to the url/index.html then the page opens fine. What have I > forgotten to set up? Something to do with apache's self-referential URLs and/or the directory-indexing mechanism... Check out these two directives: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/core.html#usecanonicalname http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_dir.html#directoryindex If, after digesting the information therein and trying a few things, it still "doesn't work", post back. If you can, quote the headers returned by the server.
