Perhaps there is an option that can tell lynx not to expect a terminal.
How about lynx -post_data -source?
Note that I'm just guessing here. I've never actually used lynx in
non-interactive mode. But if I remember correctly, -source is how to do it
(that's how the CPAN shell uses lynx to download a file from the web).

No, it won't interfere as long as you don't specify --with-apxs or another
option that makes it integrate itself with Apache.

So try ./configure --with-mysql=/usr --with-curl=/usr/local/lib

Well, after you've compiled the php executable, type this:
php > info.html
<?phpinfo();?>
Then press Ctrl+D and it will dump the output of phpinfo() to info.html.
Look in info.html to see the path name where it expects php.ini to be
(search for "php.ini" using your browser's find function), and make sure
you have php.ini there.
