.htaccess: DefaultType application/x-httpd-php
bleh:      <?php phpinfo(); ?>

---
$ curl -sI host/bleh     |grep Content-Type
Content-Type: application/x-httpd-php
$ ln -s bleh bleh.php
$ curl -sI host/bleh.php |grep Content-Type
Content-Type: text/html
---


In short, PHP doesn't seem to be used as the handler for
application/x-httpd-php when assumed file type is from a DefaultType or ForceType statement. :{

Sorry, but the bug system is not the appropriate forum for asking
support questions. Your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.
For a list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP,
please visit http://www.php.net/support.php

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

I can't see how this is not a bug report. PHP isn't functioning on Apache2
correctly (I know it is alpha). I'm just letting you guys know.

It works fine with the CVS of both apache and php, so you are doing something wrong somewhere, hence it's not a bug.
If you still think it's a bug, feel free to provide more information (and it looks like a problem in apache anyway).

I get similar results on a Raq4 (Apache 1.3.20 and PHP 4.1.2). If I name a file "blah.html.php", I get a content-type of "application/x-httpd-php" -- but the file is not parsed; the PHP script is sent to the browser.

I suspect something in the PHP module is deciding not to parse the file, even though it should (due to the .php extension and appropriate content-type). The original reporter's problem is similar, in that he is forcing the content-type on a non .php filename (in this case a symlink). In my case, blah.php works fine, blah.html.php isn't parsed.

Does this make sense? I would have thought that any file extension you set to "application/x-httpd-php" would be parsed as a PHP script, but this doesn't appear to be the case.
