Yes, can be, If the include is just static HTML it would be ok, but if
there is any scripting one should use PHP to prevent looking at PHP
source and only have the result visible. '.inc' many times is not
registered on server could be accessed directly as plain text. Would be
a bad thing if the include was the setup for accessing site's database, eh?
-- database.inc --
<?php
$user='admin';

So bottom line is if just plain HTML, sure call the include
'something.html', but if has anything sensitive, better to use
'something.php'
