he did tell my this must work
=================================
#!/usr/local/bin/php

<?php
echo "testing";
?>


help my, thank you...

Work on your english a bit :)
What he was telling you to do requires PHP to be installed as a CGI. Your server probably has it installed as an apache module which is much faster.

yeah i know my english is bad

but how do i install it as a cgi module ??

i need the telnet command "php"

so i can use this print command

print `php -q test.php`;

if your ISP does not install one for you, maybe you should try to install by yourself, grab the tarballs from http://www.php.net and configure it like this:
./configure --prefix=<your homedir>

Next, you should add path to your php interpreter to your startup scripts (mine is .bashrc) like this:
export PATH="$PATH:<yourhomedir>/bin"
