well what command are you using to open the file? you can open anything (except binary files) with a pager like less
eg:
less filename.whatever
you need a viewer for different types of files.
if you want to parse an html file you could open it with lynx if you have it installed
eg:
lynx something.html
if you want to execute something you would generally do it with:
./filename
and so on.

NAME
webserver - hints for web server configuration
SYNOPSIS
If you want people to actually see the results of your network monitoring efforts you will need a webserver.
This document lists some configuration hints for webservers. Contributions welcome.
APACHE
Configuring mod_expire
A big issue with mrtg monitoring data is the expiery time. All these nice graphs you can create are only valid for a short time. If you
do not take special action some webbrowsers will not notice this and you may end up with people seeing old data because of caching issues.
The apache module mod_expire allows you to setup special expiery properties for individual file.
Here is an example for how this may look for an mrtg web directory. The configuration directives can be stored into a .htaccess file.
############################################################
# Example .htaccess for use with apache-1.2 and mod_expire.
# (mod_expire come with apache-1.2 but you have to explicitly
# activate it when compiling the httpd ...)
