[.htacess] Mask .php to look like .html?

[webserveme]

Hi guys,

This has got to sound silly, but can anyone tell me how to mask .php extension to show as .html using .htacess?

I tried doing this:

Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^(.*)\.htm$ $1.php [nc]

However, I don't think it is working. Any help is appreciated.

I traced it to the .htaccess file. When I was bringing up my site, the ads wouldn't show and the .php wouldn't execute. And sometimes my Browser would try to download the webpage instead of just view it. So I went back and forth on tech support with my ISP LunarPages.

Seems they run something called suPHP and the contents of .htacess must be:

AddType x-httpd-php .php .htm .htm

(notice it doesn't have the 'application/' in it.)

I guess suPHP doesn't like the 'application/' .

I am new at this, but it might work for you if you are having a rough time..:rolleyes2

hi thanks for the info. I finally found the error; was missing an "L" from the syntax.
