OK, I've installed Apache and PHP and they both work fine. The line to include mod_php.conf in my httpd.conf file is uncommented. DocumentRoot is /etc/apache/htdocs. I added a file called "test.php" and tried accessing it in my browser by going to "localhost/test.php" and it gives me "The requested URL /test.php was not found on this server." There were several files in the DocumentRoot folder already, so I tried another: "localhost/menu", which showed up fine. I chmod 777ed test.php just for the hell of it and restarted apache, which did no good. Anyone know what could be wrong here?

Screw it, I'll download the source for them both again and try starting over again.

just curious... what was in the php file?

"<? phpinfo(); ?>"...and I got it working
