RTFM. The DirectoryIndex directive value is being inherited from parent
directories (or the server configuration) and can be overwritten (if the
required privileges are provided).
BTW, none of this has anything to do with PHP besides using the header()
function.

For someone trying to not be obtuse, you are rather quick at jumping to
conclusions and pointing fingers at people when the problem is with *you*
(either failing to explain your use-case or understanding the suggested
solutions). Please change your attitude or go away.
