Apache Configuration: mime types? making browser render instead of dl

browser downloads content it should render

[hesco]

I was brought in in a pinch to prep a server for an anticipated peak load. It has been serving dynamic content. And as the expected peak date approaches, the loads have shut it down to a crawl on several occasions.

I'm working to draw off as static, as much materials as I can. But I've run into a problem, here.

My browser wants to download instead of render the static html pages. wget -S says:
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

I suspect an apache configuration issue. The CMS is a php-mysql tool. I'm rather new to apache configuration and am wondering what I can do in a Directory stanza to fix this issue without messing up what is working on other parts of the server.

Its running Apache2, I think on a Fedora build on top of the 2.4 kernel.
