Narrative:
On approach when moving the flaps from 20 to 25 we got a trailing edge flaps disagree light and EICAS message. We broke off the approach; captain ran the QRH items and did PA's while I flew the aircraft and talked to tower and approach. We declared an emergency and requested the longest runway. Landing and rollout were uneventful. Airport rescue and fire fighting followed us to the gate and told us they saw nothing unusual.
