I own a website that has been using php includes on the front page, cutenews as the news program, and phpbb as the forum program. Suddenly, today when I go to look at my site, all of the php pages appear in code not the page. I decided to contact my host, and was told: "Unfortunately, troubleshooting your PHP script would be outside the scope of support. For further information and possible resolution to your issue we recommend consulting the help center and documentation for PHP located on the software creator's main website: (http://www.php.net)." I don't know how to do that or what even went wrong. I have only a basic understanding of php and have only been using php scripts and basic includes. If someone could please talk me through this, explain it to me, or anything else that would help it would be VERY helpful. Thanks in advance.
UPDATE: It just started working again, so I'm Ok. But it would still be helpful if someone could explain this to me in case it occurs again or what it is.
