"Save as" function/ php

maybe a newbie question? But how can I save a open document to an
php-file-extension? Texpad always creates a normal ".txt" file.
What configuration-setting of encoding I do need to apply. I do use Win98
an do not have php-server, etc. installed

Thanks

I think you want to delete "Default file extension" in Configure/Preferences/File

Also, I think there's a bug in the Save dialog (a bug in Windows, not in Textpad :o) which means that sometimes the wrong extension is put on a file. Put quotes around the filename to guarantee the extension you want:

"myfile.php"

I think this is detailed in Textpad's Help file.

Both solutions worked well.
