You're quite welcome.

I often use "setenforce 0" or "setenforce 1" to disable/enable selinux 
for debugging purposes. I do like selinux, though, I just haven't 
tweaked it as much as I'd like. I recommend that everyone use selinux if 
it come with your distro.

See http://fedora.redhat.com/docs/selinux-faq-fc5/#faq-entry-public_html 
for enabling public_html in selinux and labelling the folders properly.
