My best guess without looking at your code is that your auth is not making it up in the request for some reason. I'm not sure how you're connecting the google-api-php-client to your page, but you'll need to get the auth token and either set in in the header on the request or add it to the request URL.
I've found that Zend takes a lot of the complication out of the PHP development, but I've also worked with the API in PHP very briefly. Let me know if you have more questions, or can provide more data to debug this. Thanks, -Mike -m.e.
