That puts a hell of a load on the server. You know the server will have
to process each and every .htm or .html files looking for php code
buried with in the page, before it can serve it. Hence a increase in
the server load. <<BAD IDEA>>

You might instead use 'chmod +x filename.htm/html

That way the webserver only parses the htm/html file(s) that contains
the php code.
