First, is there any reason why you are not using the Apache and PHP
RPMs? Using them might simplify the process, as they'll take care of
much of the configuration. If there isn't a reason that you aren't using
them, you might want to give them a try. There should be some on your
CD, or you can grab updates from mirror.aarnet.edu.au (replace the i386
in the URLs with i586 if you have a Pentium or better, or with your
architecture if you aren't using an Intel/Athlon chip):

Apache 1.3.27:
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/linux/redhat/redhat-7.1/en/updates/os/i386/apache-1.3.27-1.7.1.i386.rpm

PHP 4.1.2:
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/linux/redhat/redhat-7.1/en/updates/os/i386/php-4.1.2-7.1.6.i386.rpm

And if you want certain PHP options, like MySQL, PostgresSQL, IMAP or
LDAP, there are RPMS for each of these in the
http://mirror.aarnet.edu.au/pub/linux/redhat/redhat-7.1/en/updates/os/i386/
directory too.

If they have any dependencies, you can grab them from that directory
too.

What were the PHP.net suggestions exactly? What were the results of
trying them? Is Apache itself working? If it is, what is happening when
you try and look at a PHP page?
