Install php4 - this includes the SAPI stuff that is required for nice
integration with Apache.  It does _not_ automagically update your
Apache config to work with PHP, however.  Seek out the HOWTO on the
PHP site, but I believe all you'll have to do is insert the
appropriate AddType directive in your httpd.conf.
