[Xitami] Xitami, PHP and aliases

Hi!

I've been trying to learn some PHP lately and for that reason I got
myself Xitami (version 2.4d9) and PHP 4. Everything went just fine,
until I discovered the possibility of aliases :-) Instead of putting
everything in the (default) folder called "webpages", I thought it was
a good idea to also make folders called "webpages2" and "webpages3" for
my different PHP learning projects.
I set the aliases according to the manual. In my case it means:

[alias]
cats=E:\xitami\webpages2
dogs=E:\xitami\webpages3

The URL for cats would be:
http://localhost/cats/index.php

Only, it does not work. The browser (Opera/Netscape/IE) acts like it's
connecting, but only shows a blank page. With HTML everything works:
http://localhost/cats/index.html
opens fine. And yes, all those files do exist (I have the same files
both in PHP and HTML). I've read the manual and gone through FAQ.
So, how to get PHP and aliases work together? I have Windows 95, if it
means anything.

TIA,
