yeah, i was trying php scripts in .php files. i know, it
never hurts to ask...

BINGO! in three out of three (actually, more like ten out of ten)
of my test config files, i had two out of three of those lines. 

i knew it was dumb mistake. otoh, i don't think i saw a single
FAQ that said 'HEY STUPID -- you need *three* new configs to 
get this to work. so now i know. i'll make a note of it in my
httpd.conf and put it up somewhere.

THANKS MUCH! you brightened up my day. ok, now what kind of 
beer should i attach? (just make sure you have the plug-in. :)

cheers,
