Within your web server configuration, there's probably a line similar to this..
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
You can also specify the html and/or htm file extensions by appending these
lines below that...
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .htm
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html
You would need to restart Apche again so it rereads the config file, but should
get you were you want to go. It would allow you to add PHP content with the HTML
pages, so that you don't have to rename all the pages on your site to .php
files.
