doni49 Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 I've got a strange issue going on and I don't know what to do about it. I'm using a hosting account (server info is quoted below--copy/pasted from CPanel). I've got my main domain and two add-on domains. I HAD all of them config'd to have all HTML files processed via the PHP engine. Last night, the main domain and one add-on domain stopped processing the PHP code that's in the HTML files but one of the add-on domains is still processing the PHP code. I could have sworn that I used either "Apache Handlers" or "MIME Type" on the CPanel to do this. But I can't get it to work now. When I created a file called phpinfo.php (with one line: <?php phpinfo(); ?>) and loaded it, it DID work. So the PHP engine IS working. Operating system Linux Kernel version 2.4.21-47.0.1.ELsmp Machine Type i686 Apache version 1.3.37 (Unix) PERL version 5.8.0 Path to PERL /usr/bin/perl Path to sendmail /usr/sbin/sendmail Installed Perl Modules Click to View PHP version 5.1.6 MySQL version 5.0.27-standard cPanel Build 10.9.0-CURRENT 56 Theme cPanel X v2.6.0 cPanel Pro 1.0 (RC36) Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/39915-html-files-via-php-engine/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_oliver Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 Why can the files just not have the .php extention instead of .html or .htm? Seems a little pointles?

ShogunWarrior Posted February 24, 2007 Share Posted February 24, 2007 If you can manually create (via FTP/shell) a .htaccess file put it in the main directory with: AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm .html Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/39915-html-files-via-php-engine/#findComment-193097 Share on other sites More sharing options...
doni49 Posted February 24, 2007 Author Share Posted February 24, 2007 Why can the files just not have the .php extention instead of .html or .htm? Seems a little pointles? There are two reasons. 1) when I first started learning PHP, I was concerned that by showing exactly what scripting language I was using, I would be making it easier for them to hack my sites. I now have a bunch of HTML files with PHP code in them and would REALLY rather not go through and change them all. 2) From what I've read if the search engines know that a page is scripted, it gives the page a lower rating for the searches (google doesn't like scripted pages). The way that I have my sites set up, there is NO indication that any page is scripted--although with some of them, one would have to be stupid to believe they're not scripted. But it's a now a moot point anyway. I sent my host a support request and he fixed it--I'm still not too sure what went wrong.

the_oliver Posted April 29, 2007 Share Posted April 29, 2007 (google doesn't like scripted pages) Rubbish! It will not see the scriping, only the standard output.
