I originaly had a custom installation of Apache which i compiled from source when I set the server up. Recently I needed to add PHP capablitites. I had forgotten that I compiled Apache and installed PHP using YAST.
When i could not get PHP working i relized I had installed Apache and PHP differently so I used YAST to uninstall PHP and some other appplications I had installed at the same time and deleted the Apachee2 folder, httpd.conf file and the htdocs folder.
I then used YAST to install Apache and PHP5 at the same time. I haave tried this a couple of times and I still can not get PHP scripts to run.
I would apppreicate any suggestions
Below is a copy of my httpd.conf file
/etc/apache2/httpd.conf
This is the main Apache server configuration file. It contains the
configuration directives that give the server its instructions.
See <URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.2/> for detailed information about
the directives.
Based upon the default apache configuration file that ships with apache,
which is based upon the NCSA server configuration files originally by Rob
McCool. This file was knocked together by Peter Poeml <poeml+apache@suse.de>.
If possible, avoid changes to this file. It does mainly contain Include
statements and global settings that can/should be overridden in the
configuration of your virtual hosts.

Global Environment
The directives in this section affect the overall operation of Apache,
such as the number of concurrent requests.
run under this user/group id
Include /etc/apache2/uid.conf
- how many server processes to start (server pool regulation)
- usage of KeepAlive
Include /etc/apache2/server-tuning.conf
ErrorLog: The location of the error log file.
If you do not specify an ErrorLog directive within a <VirtualHost>
container, error messages relating to that virtual host will be
logged here. If you do define an error logfile for a <VirtualHost>
container, that host’s errors will be logged there and not here.
ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error_log
generated from APACHE_MODULES in /etc/sysconfig/apache2
Include /etc/apache2/sysconfig.d/loadmodule.conf
IP addresses / ports to listen on
Include /etc/apache2/listen.conf
predefined logging formats
Include /etc/apache2/mod_log_config.conf

‘Main’ server configuration
The directives in this section set up the values used by the ‘main’
server, which responds to any requests that aren’t handled by a
<VirtualHost> definition. These values also provide defaults for
any <VirtualHost> containers you may define later in the file.
All of these directives may appear inside <VirtualHost> containers,
in which case these default settings will be overridden for the
virtual host being defined.
Include /etc/apache2/default-server.conf
Another way to include your own files
The file below is generated from /etc/sysconfig/apache2,
include arbitrary files as named in APACHE_CONF_INCLUDE_FILES and
APACHE_CONF_INCLUDE_DIRS
Include /etc/apache2/sysconfig.d/include.conf
Virtual server configuration
VirtualHost: If you want to maintain multiple domains/hostnames on your
machine you can setup VirtualHost containers for them. Most configurations
use only name-based virtual hosts so the server doesn’t need to worry about
IP addresses. This is indicated by the asterisks in the directives below.
Please see the documentation at
<URL:http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.2/vhosts/>
for further details before you try to setup virtual hosts.
You may use the command line option ‘-S’ to verify your virtual host
configuration.
Include /etc/apache2/vhosts.d/*.conf
Note: instead of adding your own configuration here, consider
adding it in your own file (/etc/apache2/httpd.conf.local)
putting its name into APACHE_CONF_INCLUDE_FILES in
/etc/sysconfig/apache2 – this will make system updates
easier 
Here is the page (test.html) i am trying to load
<html><body><h1>It works! whoopie!!</h1><p> <?php echo ‘<p>Hello World</p>’; ?> </p><p> <?php
