Hi Chris, when I started to use PHP I discovered the same problem because you have to add these lines of code into http.conf file
# And for PHP 4.x, use: # <IfModule mod_php4.c> AddType application/x-httpd-php .php AddType application/x-httpd-php .php4 AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps </IfModule> , add these lines into the file mod_php4 under ../http/modules Variable:HTTPD_SEC_MOD_PHP LoadModule:LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache/libphp4.so AddModule:AddModule mod_php4.c Text:PHP4 and place the module file "libphp4.so" under the exact path. The last problem is to recompile apache specifing to implement PHP4 functionality. I suggest you to read how to recompile your Apache with this option into the Apache's man page. If you want I can send you a copy of apache compiled to support it directly. Good luck and have a nice day Tiziano Crimella Chris Guest wrote: > I confess I am a newbie to PHP... > > I have a development server that I am using to test with.
