I'm sure this wont' help, but just in case you may have missed the obvious
(it happens sometimes<g>)..Make sure you PHP script has the extension .PHP
.. The server won't recognize it as a PHP file otherwise, and it won't know
what to do with it. Also this extension has to be registred properly on the
server, but that is beyond me.
