Description Ryan K. 2005-08-28 01:39:03 UTC 
Hey there,
I am attempting to update information for my company's information
page on your encyclopedia website but tonight when I have clicked on the "Edit
this page" link, a download box comes up asking me to download something. Is
there a way to change the settings of my account so that I can update my page
through the website and not have to download anything?

To be more specific, I go to our info page; 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Wrestling_Federation and I click on
"edit this page" and the following box comes up: 

Do you want to save this file?
Name: index.php
Type: Unkown File Type
From: en.wikimedia.org

How can I keep this from happening and go back to being able to edit it from the 
website.

Did you check "Use external editor by default" in your preferences? Turn that off if 
so.

It worked! Thank you!
