How to map the PHP extension to ASP.NET 2.0 isapi-filter

I was trying to have webpages with the .PHP extension be processed by IIS 6 and ASP.NET 2.0. Here is the error that I was getting, "There is no build provider registered for the extension ‘.php’. You can register one in the <compilation><buildProviders> section in machine.config or web.config. Make sure is has a BuildProviderAppliesToAttribute attribute which includes the value ‘Web’ or ‘All’. After some research, I found a few settings to make this work. I wanted to pass along my findings because when searching on Google, there was only 2 results. This article covers the basic syntax. http://arje.net/

#1
Add the PHP script mapping in IIS and point it to the ASP.NET 2.0 ISAPI-filter.

#2 and #3
After you add the script mapping to IIS 6. There are a couple of items to add to the web.config. You have to add the HTTP Handler and buildProviders option listed below.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<configuration>
    <system.web>

        <httpHandlers>
                <add verb="*" path="*.php" type="System.Web.UI.PageHandlerFactory" validate="True" />
        </httpHandlers>

If you don’t have these don’t have these settings you’ll receive this error.
