Parsing .html Pages

This isn't really that urgent but I was wondering, I read somewhere that you can configure you server to pars all html pages for php code, and I was wondering if that was true, and if Xisto has that feature enabled?

Yes, it's true. I did it to my account, just incase i wanted an HTML document to translate php coding. Go to mime types from your cpanel and add a mime type: application/x-httpd-php : .html

Thanks! Just one more thing, if I were to ever want to do one of those complex thing in the address, you know, index.php?link=food, or something, would that still work with an html page (index.html?link=food)?

Yes it would, since the page is being parsed as a PHP script. Anything that was done using .php would work exactly the same way as it would set as .html.

now that were on this topic, how would you parse filenames with no extensions as php files, e.g.

http://www.some-site.com/index?content=blah

for security.

I've read this somewhere, i think it was another feature you get for making html pages read php coding. But, i cant remember. I'll reply later when i get the full info on that..

james 666thats function based PHP, you can google, but if you want a full explanation from me or some php guru(Hiya SystemofWisdom ) on the forums, tell me

I've found something similar to what you're asking for. I dont know if it will help you, but it's a start.

If that's not what you're looking for, then try this:

You would have to add this to .htaccess (The PHP Manual says httpd.conf, but it should work in .htaccess):

 

<Location /index>    ForceType application/x-httpd-php</Location>

That would make it run as a PHP script. Also, if you want that to be the index, you would also have to add this to .htaccess

DirectoryIndex index

I hope that helped you. I don't quite know that much about this, though.
