Typically, your file will only be processed as PHP code if its extension is
".php". Therefore, you should use that for all PHP files. HTML files will
probably be handled correctly if they are given the .php extension, but the
best practice is to use .htm (or, preferably, .html) if the file contains no
PHP code.
