Adding php code to .html file

Question

I want to add php code to my .html file. I have searched a lot and din't find why it is not working

Steps i have followed for this:

1) Created a .htaccess file inside my htdocs

2) And added the following things

  AddType text/html .shtml .shtm .htm .html
  AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5.6 .html

3) Restarted my Apache.

Executed my page. My page contains

<?php
 echo "hello";
?>

I din't see any errors and hello too. And i changed the htaccess content to

AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm .html

as mentioned here

It is also not working. I don't know whether htaccess file must contain some other elements or not. Please let me know.

Thanks

Is the opening php tag just a typo? It should be without spaces: ` — jeroen, Apr 27 '15 at 10:45
I have a .php file in the same place. It works. Do i need to something else so that it checks htaccess file — Gibbs, Apr 27 '15 at 10:51
Perhaps `AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .htm .html` would do the trick? — Mike Rockétt, Apr 27 '15 at 10:52
Would it be worth considering just rewriting .html urls to open .php files? — John Reid, Apr 27 '15 at 10:58

You need to set AllowOverride to All in httpd.conf, or in your virtual hosts file (httpd-vhosts.conf) if you are using them.

Otherwise, directives in your .htaccess file will not be allowed.

If it is set to All, then you should be able to do either of the following.

Unset the handler and reset it:

RemoveHandler .html .htm 
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm

Or, use FilesMatch:

<FilesMatch "\.(htm|html|php)$">
    SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>

Let me check this. ` AllowOverride all Require all denied ` What is that require all denied. – Gibbs Apr 27 '15 at 11:12
It should be `require all granted` - that's what I use in mine... From which file is that? – Mike Rockétt Apr 27 '15 at 11:15
And are you using a virtual host? – Mike Rockétt Apr 27 '15 at 11:16
No Mike. `AllowOverride All Require all granted` I just added this and it doesn't work :( – Gibbs Apr 27 '15 at 11:17
Please see the update in my answer. If it still doesn't work, then I might be missing something too... – Mike Rockétt Apr 27 '15 at 11:21
When i check in the chrome browser, my php lines are automatically commented. It looks like `<1--?php phpinfo(); ?--> ` – Gibbs Apr 27 '15 at 11:29

Something else? is the mod_mime enabled? – Amit Verma Apr 27 '15 at 11:02
Either that, or check that `AllowOverride` is set to `All` in `httpd.conf` or your virtual host file if other `htaccess` directives are not loading. – Mike Rockétt Apr 27 '15 at 11:04

LoadModule mime_module modules/mod_mime.so is enabled. But not mod_mime magic. – Gibbs Apr 27 '15 at 11:04
@MikeAnthony it is set to None. – Gibbs Apr 27 '15 at 11:05
