Not true.
Although the PHP is parsed through the server, a file with the
(generally) 'php' extension is sent to the client with HTML.
IE understands that the .php extension contains HTML markup (as
processed by the server).
By the same token, IE knows that (for instance) .jpg is not going to
look pretty in ASCII so it shows a download box.
Opera believes that PHP files are not viewable and, therefore, is
offering you the chance to download it.
