PHP code inside of HTML pages

**Kayla** · March 13th, 2006, 8:48 AM

PHP code inside of html pages will only work if the file is named with a php file
extension (filename.php and not filename.html).

You will have to edit other pages that link to filename.html to reflect the
php extension change.

or just change .htaccess (add the following line)

Code:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php html

That's generally considered a bad idea. All HTML pages will be run through the PHP parser regardless of whether there's any actual PHP code in the file, which unnecessarily chomps on CPU usage.

Good point.

Good point, but I think if you're looking to have the majority of your HTML pages contain PHP, it is better than renaming everything (and having search engine links, external links, etc break). If the minority of your pages are PHP, then rename.

Kickersny, thank you. All my HTML pages have some sort of PHP include in them, and when I first read this thread, I thought, "oh crap..." I thought from the description of PHPsuexec that we wouldn't be able to use .htaccess to modify the behavior of PHP in Apache. Glad to see I was wrong!!!

And even if you have drag us old-school web guys into the secure future, I'm glad Surpass is making this effort. A couple of folks I know were getting hit with PHP scripts that did all sorts of nasty things to their sites. I was worried about this happening in my own webspace, but you look like you're on top of it. Thanks!
