Using phplib

[mohican]

I have to use phplib for some of my applications to run. It wasnt installed in my remote host, so I installed it below the cgi-bin directory and created an .htaccess file.
"php_flag magic_quotes_gpc off
php_value include_path ".:/home/usr/phplib"
php_flag auto_prepend "prepend.php3"
"
But now I get a server error which doesnt recognize the php_flag and php_value.
Is there any way i can work around this to get phplib to work.

Thnx
