can't get .htaccess file to send my html files to the PHP parser

[lkrubner@geocities.com]

Hi. I want all my html files sent to the php parser for parsing. I
tried to put up an .htaccess file with just this in it:


AddType application/x-php .htm
Action application/x-php /usr/bin/php
AddType application/x-php .html
Action application/x-php /usr/bin/php



Didn't work. Also tried /sbin/. Didn't work.

This is the path, what am I doing wrong:

_SERVER["PATH"] /sbin:/usr/sbin:/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin

Why don't you just name the files .php?

And break all the links in Google? No thanks. I want the existing files
to start acting like PHP files.

Why would you do that?

The widespread convention is to suffix filenames of PHP files
with '.php'. I suggested it because it is a convention. You
don't have to follow it.
