Apache2, PHP, and the W3C xhtml validator

Hello NG

I have installed Apache2 and PHP on my Mdk 9.2 box. I have made an
info.php page to test if php is working. It appears that it is as my
info.php is displayed as it should be.

The only thing is, when I upload the info.php file to the W3C validator,
it complains:

Sorry, I am unable to validate this document because its content type is
application/octet-stream, which is not currently supported by this
service.

My understanding in this instance, obviously limited, that the page should
be processed and delivered to the validator. This isnt happening. Does
anyone have an idea why it is failing in this manner?

At this stage, I am confused as to whether its a setting in PHP or Apache
that needs adjusting. As info.php works through my web-browser, I dont
understand why the page isnt being validated.

Any advice would be thankfully received!
