If you want to actually accomplish something here... It's probably not working because you're calling it a .php3 file, which is OLD and deprecated. The php.conf file in /etc/httpd/conf.d does not contain the necessary AddType entry to run .php3 files. Rename it to .php, or even better, use an index.php file of <?php phpinfo(); ?> as was previously suggested. That should be all you need. -- "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety'' Benjamin Franklin 1775
