apache 2.2.4 and php5 not working here

[bbxrider]

ok, new to apache and php, this is for winxp pro
when i address my test.php in ie i get the file contents not the php info stuff
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
here's what i've done
1. install apache 2.2.4, it works! at least from localhost
2. downloaded/unpacked php5 zip file to c:\php
3. added 'c:\php' to path variable, first one too! and when not working, also copied php5ts.dll to windows system32 directory
4. added to http.conf

LoadModule php5_module "C:/php/php5apache2.dll"
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
PHPIniDir "C:/php"

5. copied php.ini-dist to php.ini
6. made mods to php.ini
doc_root = "c:\apache software foundation\apache2.2\htdocs"
extension_dir = "c:\php\extensions"
7. restarted apache from program files|control apache server|restart

dang, it all looked so easy and so well documented
any suggestions would be greatly appreciated
thanks, bbxrider

Is your test.php file stored in the htdocs directory of apache

thanks for the reply,
i did get it working, when i first unzipped the php download, it didn't create any subdirectories, so i had this bad directory structure. after it unzipped correctly, it worked
