check php.net and read the 'README' and
'INSTALL' files that come in the .tar.gz file
for more detailed information.

very basically, you want to get the sources,
untar/zip them, run configure, then build the
thing and test it (you can do all of this
as an unprivileged user).   then install as
root (or whatever account has the necessary
privileges)

(replace php..... with whatever the PHP
tarball is named)

at the prompt (you dont need to be root) type:
tar xvfz php.....tar.gz
cd php.....
./configure --enable-trans-sid
make
make test


if you didnt get any errors, then (as root) type:
make install

then configure your webserver and
restart the webserver 

if you have any specific troubles, let me know,
i've config'd PHP on three different redhat
linux installations using apache and havent
had any problems yet.
