Yeah, basically, in your httpd.conf file you specify the DocumentRoot for your Apache installation. Then whatever dirs are below that inherit the AddType(s) and such of the parent. You can add different dirs individually if you want. Just add the following to your httpd.conf file (you can put them anywhere in the file, bottom is ok):
<Directory "C:\WINDOWS\Desktop\work"> AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .phtml .php3 #Next line is optional (for viewing source) AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps </Directory> Anyway, you can create a Directory section for any dir on the system that you want to be able to parse php files in.
