The above is what tells emacs to find the php-mode.el file that you said
you put in /usr/share/emacs/site-lisp. That site-lisp directory should
be in your load path, but if emacs is saying it can't find php-mode.el
than maybe the .el file is not really there, or the permissions are
wrong, or your load-path is messed up. Can you do an ll
/usr/share/emacs/site-lisp and see if php-mode.el is in there, and what
it's permissions are? You can just copy and paste that into an email
and we can go from there.

This tells emacs to automatically go into php mode when you open a file
with a .php or .php3 extension.

This looks like it does something similare to the (require 'php-mode).
Probably should only have one or the other. I have the require line.

This does the same as the above (set auto-mode-alist... stuff, only it's
only setting up php-mode for .php files, not .php3. Again, only use one
or the other.

This seems to make sure syntax highlighting is turned on for
everything.
