I am playing with it too in woody.

I needed to install php4 module by "apt-get install php4" as you might
have already done.

Also, /etc/apache/httpd.conf I needed few things.
1. comment out to enable php4 module

LoadModule php4_module /usr/lib/apache/1.3/libphp4.so

2. My php page have extention .php   In order index.php to be auto
started like index.html, I editted as:

# DirectoryIndex: Name of the file or files to use as a pre-written HTML
# directory index.  Separate multiple entries with spaces.
#
<IfModule mod_dir.c>
    DirectoryIndex index.html index.htm index.shtml index.cgi index.php
</IfModule>

3.  If any files with .html needs to be php, I could enable it by:

    #
    # And for PHP 4.x, use:
    #
    AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html

I do not know this last config is right thing to do or not.  
It works, though :)
