How do I parse PHP codes in Servlet output?

*** I'd appreciate any help in this matter that anyone can provide. I haven't been able to figure this out for days! *** Apache JServ: v1.0 PHP: v3.0.12 System: Digital Unix box OS: Stronghold 2.4.2 (Apache 1.3.6) The problem I am having is that the output of one of my servlets has php codes in it, but my server is not parsing the php codes. Here is a cut from my httpd.conf: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ <IfModule mod_php3.c> AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php3 AddType application/x-httpd-php3-source .php3s </IfModule> ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Do I have to set my MIME types a certain way? My response content type is set to TEXT/HTML and I tried setting it to application/x-httpd-php3 but the browser just try to download it because it doesn't know how to handle it - which makes sense... I wasn't expecting the browser to be able to parse the PHP codes - but I just tried it anyway... How do I get the servlet response to pass through a PHP interpreter before it goes to the browser? I assume there MUST be a way because a lot of people design their entire sites around PHP - and if they need to add servlet support I'm sure this problem would come up. It seems as if many people would opt to develop this application in PHP - but then what is the benefit of Servlets over PHP? That of course is a larger issue - but I choose to develop form processing applications in Java because it is not a scripting language, has more functions, and is more effiicient in terms of memory management, etc. Although I could be wrong. The name of the servlet is housing.shapp. I searched all the mailing lists and couldn't find a solution to this problem. I guess I would have to make the PHP engine parse all files that pass through the server - but I don't know how to do that safely. I don't want this to work just for this servlet - I want to be able to do this for all servlets. If someone can PLEASE help me out I'd really appreciate it.
