You need to add a handler for php (either using the php module or as a cgi).

See also: http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.unix.apache2.php for how to install php (including enabling module support at config-time on apache).

enable the php module
 

PHP is turned off by default in Slackware.

To turn on, see the end of the file /etc/httpd/httpd.conf, and uncomment the line concerning php

i've just install slackware 12,
my apache is already run,
i can see the page "it works" in localhost,
n then i uncomment
Include /etc/httpd/mod_php.conf in /etc/httpd/httpd.conf
to enable php.
on /etc/httpd/php.ini i use
magic_quotes_gpc = On,
the problem is,
why my php did not show in my browser when i access page of php,
ex: localhost/xxx.php
the php page did not show,
but when i use console like this,
#php -r 'echo "Hello\n";'
the php was show,
why my php not show in my browser ???
i use konqueror and mozilla firefox for my browser.

please help me.....!!!!
