Hi Kyle.  I just read a message where you said that it was displaying the entire
code I told you to enter.  What did you do so that it's not doing that now?

You don't need that meta content type line.  PHP code is pre-processed by PHP on
the server and sent to the client browser as HTML.  I've never used a meta tag
like that.

How did you install PHP?  As a DSO module?  Compiled in the httpd binary?  As a
CGI?  Did you restart Apache afterwards?
