Hello, and thanks for the reply, Tjoek -

However, this really isn't what I'm looking for. I'm simply looking for
a way to parse PHP code from within existing HTML pages, so that I can
migrate a site from Apache to IIS6.0.

Like I said, if I were using Apache, I would just add .html to my
AddType directive, and call it good. Is it not this simple under IIS?

Thanks
