File Download Dialog with aspx files

Hello.

I am totally new to asp and already have a question.
I have put two files in my wwwroot directory. One
with the ending .asp and one with .aspx. In these files
there is just plain text.

Calling the asp file in the internet explorer shows me the
text, but calling the aspx file the "File Download"-Dialog
is shown (what I donīt want).

Seems that I need to register the file extension somewhere...
But where?

Thanks for help!
Greetings, timtos.

You need to install the .NET runtime after installing IIS. If you put them
on in the wrong order, you can run aspnet_regiis in order to configure your
server.
