    Hi group,

    I have an HTML page that I want to run some PHP code. I found several "How tos" about this but I can't get it to work. The code is very simple:
    Code:
    
cat  test.html
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
  <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"
 http-equiv="content-type">
  <title>Test</title>
  <meta content="william estrada" name="author">
</head>
<body style="background-color: rgb(204, 204, 204); color: windowtext;"
 link="#0000ee" vlink="#551a8b" alink="#ee0000">
<center>
<?php
echo "Last modified: " . date ("F d Y", getlastmod());
?>
</body>
</html>
    Code (markup):
    My php.conf look like this:
    cat /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf
#
# PHP is an HTML-embedded scripting language which attempts to make it
# easy for developers to write dynamically generated webpages.
#
<IfModule prefork.c>
  LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5.so
</IfModule>
<IfModule worker.c>
  LoadModule php5_module modules/libphp5-zts.so
</IfModule>

#
# Cause the PHP interpreter to handle files with a .php extension.
#
AddHandler php5-script .php
AddType text/html .php

#
# Add index.php to the list of files that will be served as directory
# indexes.
#
DirectoryIndex index.php

#
# Uncomment the following line to allow PHP to pretty-print .phps
# files as PHP source code:
#
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
    Code (markup):
    Any .php file works OK but not any embedded php code.

    What am I missing??

    Thanks for your time.

    you need to save your test.html file as test.php for the embedded php scripts to work

    Not true. I fixed it by changing my conf file: 
    This
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
to
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
    Code (markup):
    This should be a default??

    Wouldn't recommend doing it in the main config file as that'll mean it'll run all .html pages through PHP which won't add a lot of load to the server, but will add load that you probably don't need to. Maybe the better idea would be to add a line to .htaccess

    AddType application/x-httpd-php .html

    ...so it'll only apply to the .html files in the web site in question.
