Mapping html extensions to PHP files

[Anon]

I am currently developing a website using PHP. However, my clients would prefer it if the file extensions ended ".html" rather than ".php".

I thought that I could solve this using "symlinks", however when I try to create one the php was displayed on the screen - rather than the code actually being parsed!

Has any one got any solutions to my problem?

Btw, the site is hosted on a linux box. So I have general Unixy facilities available to use and Apache is the webserver.

Cheers

create a file named .htaccess containing
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html and put it in your root directory.

.html files will now be parsed by php ...

Is it possible to map other file extensions like this:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .xxxx

Also, I saw many site use pages that has no file extension. How can I do that too? Can I just use the following:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .

Thanks~

I tried your method but it even makes the regular .php files not working
