[lug] mod_php not interpreting <?php print ("hello, world\n"); ?>

I have SuSE 6.3.  I have installed Apache and PHP using yast.  The SuSE
setup is slightly different from what I read in "MySQL" by Paul DeBois
and in some of the README files, but conforms to README.SuSE for
Apache.  I did not setup the Apache SSL Server.

I have entered the following in a file:
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 
<HTML>
<BODY>

<?php print ("hello, world\n"); ?>

</BODY>
</HTML>
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

I do not see "hello, world" when I view the file with Netscape or lynx. 
I have tried several different file names and extensions, .php, .php3,
.html and .phtml.  

The attachment file is the result of ps ax > ps.txt. It looks to me like
PHP is running. I don't have a clear understanding of how apache works
with the file or how to verify if PHP is running, other than running ps. 

Any help would be appreciated, I feel like I am drowning in
documentation, but must be missing something.
