This unfortunately still results in the same behaviour, I believe (from the source) because the php-script handler is still committed to producing application/x-httpd-php content. Odd thing: I re-did my modifications to the Apache source, and this time it works. The PHP handler's mime type is now promoted to text/html for the purposes of content negotiation. I discovered that modifying includes/httpd.h this way: #define INCLUDES_MAGIC_TYPE3 "text/x-server-parsed-html" #define INCLUDES_MAGIC_TYPE "application/x-httpd-php" works, whereas swapping them: #define INCLUDES_MAGIC_TYPE "text/x-server-parsed-html" #define INCLUDES_MAGIC_TYPE3 "application/x-httpd-php" does not. From what I can see, mod_negotiation tries to treat them identically thoughout. So perhaps there is something being dropped there. I realize that PHP isn't a standard apache module, and adding standard infrastructure to do this kind of quackery would probably be difficult (as the patches would have to go into both Apache and PHP). I'm content to just let the mailing list archives of the world record this hack/solution, and move on. Thank you for all your help.
