making .shtml parsed by php

[Anon]

The subject may be a bit misleading. I know how to do this. I just need an .htaccess file with the following in it:

RemoveHandler .shtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php .shtml

My real question is this: we have directories 'Alias'd into a path (ie, http://www.mysite.com, and http://www.mysite.com/aliaseddir). Will this .htaccess file apply to these diretories, or only to directories underneath the real path?

Adding this to the httpd.conf will take care of this problem....or don't you have access?

Yeah, I have access. My real question was which paths this change would apply to; the real path (/var/www/html/...) or Apache's virtual paths (www.mywebsite.com/site1/...).
