i went to a couple different sources, and the following code snippets
were each recommended by a different website dealing with php syntax
highlighting...  i tried them in various combinations (each alone, all
toghether, two at a time...) but none of them seem to fix the
problem...  so...  it doesn't seem to be working at all...  i'm kind of
confused because i know somebody who does have the syntax highlighting,
but he doens't know how he got it, cuz it came when he installed
emacs.... (and i got my .emacs file from him)
thanx a ton!

(require 'php-mode)
(set auto-mode-alist
     (append '(("\\.php$" . php-mode)
               ("\\.php3" . php-mode))
             auto-mode-alist))


(autoload 'php-mode "php-mode" "PHP editing mode" t)
(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("\\.php\\'" . php-mode))


(cond (window-system
       (require 'font-lock)
       (setq font-lock-support-mode 'lazy-lock-mode)
       (setq font-lock-maximum-decoration t)
       (global-font-lock-mode t)
       ))
