Dale,

Thanks for your note; I'm looking at the httpd.conf file that is in  
etc/httpd, and I see a line that loads the php4 module, but not 5.

Could you possibly tell me what the line should say? I don't know the  
exact location of the php5 module, so I don't know what to type in  
there. If you could look at your install, that would be mucho helpful.

Thanks,

Bob
