I wrote what I wrote in my original post because I was trying to explain 
something the best way I could using what I could remember about what I 
read.. and some of what I could remember was to do with the extension.

I actually thought I read that the page was a HTML document, and there 
PHP code that sent a header to the browser telling it that it's PHP, 
instead of using Apache's modules. Maybe I dreamt this.. but I don't 
think its possible to do this. Is that right?
