Parsing HTML Files as PHP

From OCS Support Wiki

Introduction

This guide will show you how to enable PHP code on your HTML pages.

Enabling PHP on HTML Pages

If you aren't sure which type of system you're on, try the non-PHPSuExec method first. If that doesn't work, try the PHPSuExec method.

Non-PHPSuExec Systems

In your .htaccess file in your public_html folder, add:

RemoveHandler .htm .html
AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm .html

If you don't have an .htaccess file, just create one. You may have to enable hidden files in your FTP program to see and edit hidden files (files with a . at the beginning).

PHPSuExec Systems

AddType application/x-httpd-php5 htm html
