i just figured something out. if i use php on the CLI, thus...

     % php -f whatever.php > parsed.html

...it correctly parses the file and spits out html. but when i 
initiate it through apache (i.e., using a browser), it doesn't.
so it seems like apache isn't initiating and/or engaging with
php properly. 

one person asked offlist if this is is my http.conf:

          <IfModule mod_dir.c>
              <IfModule mod_php3.c>
                  <IfModule mod_php4.c>
                      DirectoryIndex index.php index.php3 index.html
                  </IfModule>
                  <IfModule !mod_php4.c>
                      DirectoryIndex index.php3 index.html
                  </IfModule>
              </IfModule>
              <IfModule !mod_php3.c>
                  <IfModule mod_php4.c>
                      DirectoryIndex index.php index.html
                  </IfModule>
                  <IfModule !mod_php4.c>
                      DirectoryIndex index.html
                  </IfModule>
              </IfModule>
          </IfModule>

it is.

ho-hum.

cheers,
