I figured out that doing "make config" in /usr/ports/lang/php5 would bring
up the screen the handbook was referring to. I'm guessing perhaps that
somehow sysinstall sets that configuration for me automatically. eg: when I
install apache web server I would assume that sysinstally would set the
option to build mod_php. I was given the impression that I had to build
apache and php5 from source which is something I'd be willing to do but like
I was hinting at in my previous message I remember a time when sysinstall
would just sort of do it all for me. Then again, I think that might have
been through some apache+mod_php type package available in a previous
versions.

You probably set the options already. Try "make config" and see "man
ports" for a more detailed explanation. [Your explanation isn't clear
enough for me to understand exactly what you're trying to do, so my
advice is unfortunately general.]
