Thanks Lee. But the problem is when i go to the URL
www.cag.nic.in/home_page.asp or www.cag.nic.in the asp server script
runs on the webserver (IIS or whatever) and outputs a html page which
is passed as is to the firefox browser BUT the browser does not render
it as a html page but rather as plain text. So i get to see the page as
source text and not as a php/html page would be rendered by the browser.
