Parsing php in html isn't working anymore - php

The parsing of my php pages in my html always worked well. But not anymore.
I am not sure when it stopped working.
I used this in my .htaccess file:
AddHandler x-httpd-php5 .php .htm .html
But that doesn't work anymore.
I googled and found other codes like with Addtype etc. but I can't get it to work.
Any ideas anyone?

The correct directive is :
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php .htm .html

How to Parse HTML as PHP?

I'm using Apache2 on Heroku and I'm trying to parse HTML as PHP so I can include files inside a HTML file and use HTML as normal, so I don't have to copy paste the navigator and stuff, such as footer in each other html file. This makes work much easier.
I've tried to look things up, made .htaccess and httpd.conf work, but whatever I have done so far it doesn't really work. What it does at the moment is it gives me .html to download.
These are the current settings I have:
AddHandler x-httpd-php .html .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
I AddType started to cause the .html to download.
Inside httpd.conf I have this:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .htm .html
<Files />
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html
</Files>
Update:
I've asked Heroku support, however, they don't support these things... uhm..
So, I've figured out that the buildpacks that Heroku has, this one: https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-php
has a folder inside support that includes this:
https://github.com/heroku/heroku-buildpack-php/tree/master/support/build/_conf/apache2
a httpd.conf that I can't access, because apperantly it builds from that. However I can remove that buildpack and replace it with mine. The problem is the buildpacks work like that
they have a bin folder with a compiler inside, and when I fork it, it still compiles it from their repository.
I need someone to help me out and fork it and basically modify it so that it doesn't load a httpd.conf at all, so that I can include mine and do stuff with it.
Update:
I am just using PHP now, since I can't do anything to change it, it's on heroku's side or the buildpack from heroku.
Your AddType seems to be ok:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
Sometimes you need to indicate the PHP version:
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm
or for PHP 7:
AddType application/x-httpd-php7 .html .htm
another solution is to remove html handler:
RemoveHandler .html .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .htm .html
one more solution:
<FilesMatch "\.html$">
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>
Do not forget to restart the server to see the results!

htacces file & PHP parsing issue

There is a problem with PHP parsing the html files on my site.
I've been using php in html files, together with the directive
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm
in the .htaccess file, without any problem for 5 years.
Since a couple of days ago, suddenly it doesn't work anymore.
Only the .php files are parsed properly and the html files are not, anymore
(the actual php code is displayed instead of the result of the execution!)
I contacted the host service but they say they can't offer support.
I thought that for some reason the .htaccess file is not read anymore by the server,
but I tested it with a redirect directive and it worked.
Then I thought that they modified something in the php engine and beside the above mentioned directive I've tried each of the following directives:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .html .htm
but no success.
So html file are not php parsed anymore, but I've noticed someting interesting about the index.html file:
if I access mydomain.com/index.html the result is bad,
HOWEVER, if I access just mydomain.com then it displays properly !!
(And of course, there is no index.php file). That means the index.html file is actually parsed, in this case.
BUT, the situation stays the same even if the .htaccess file is deleted.
For this particular file (index.html), the behavior is the same in any of the subdirectories.
As the hosting service is not helpful with checking their server configuration settings,
I wonder if there is anything I can try on my side, as I'm stuck with this.
And any hints would be welcome.
Thanks.

html files parsed as php but shown as html

I have a website which has a bunch of simple HTML pages. There is a menu in the page and of course the html is repeated across all the pages. I want to be able to put the menu in a php file and then have it as an include in all html files.
I thought I could do this with .htaccess by getting all html files parsed as php. However I'm having real problems getting it to parse. I've been tons of google links and have tried a bunch of stuff but none of it seems to work any ideas:
stuff I've tried:
# Use PHP5.4 as default
AddHandler x-httpd-php .html .htm
AddHandler php-script .php .html .htm
AddHandler php5-script .php .html .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php54 .html .htm
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php54 .php .html
Not all at once but line by line. None of it worked! The server uses fast cgi so I think actually only the addhandler stuff is needed and it uses 5.4.4
thanks
My answer in the comment (which I shouldn't have done) had the linebreak removed.
Some hosts (including the one I use for their shared servers) have Linux configured differently. You might want to speak with them or check their support documentation, they may have answered it for you.
For my host, this is the correct pair of commands to have PHP execute within files that have a .html extension.
AddHandler cgi-script .html
SetEnv PHP_EXTENSION .html

AddType in htaccess causes page to download

I have read about 10 questions like this, but there seems to be no answer to this simple question.
What could cause .htm files to be downloading instead of executed as php?
I am using the following code:
AddType application/x-httpd-php htm
I have tried many combinations but no success.
What else can I try?
All I need is .htm and .html files to execute php.
Use AddHandler also, change htm to .htm and add .html
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .htm .html
AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm .html

I had the same issue but then i figured the version of php i'm using is php5. I changed the handler to the following and it worked!
AddHandler x-httpd-php5-3 .php
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php
I had the same problem and couldn't find the answer here. Did find it on this cpanel forum though:
https://forums.cpanel.net/threads/php-script-is-not-working-in-html-file.595195/
Their advice was to use this:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-ea-php56 .htm .html .shtml
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .php
I was using PHP together with JSON though. After this PHP did work, but JSON didn't. Solved it by removing the AddType and sticking with the AddHandler
AddHandler application/x-httpd-ea-php56 .htm .html .shtml
I'm sharing my own experience with this super frustrating issue. My host got taken over by another hosting provider and they changed technologies. One of the changes allowed me to edit my own PHP version at will, but absolutely none of them (from the lowest 5.4 to the highest 7.2) worked properly. I was using a global .htaccess across all my domains (placed in the root) and had my AddType-s and AddHangler-s at the beginning of the file. Little that I knew - when I had been changing PHP versions, the little bugger wrote the correct string defining the proper name of my PHP version at the very end of that .htaccess file. When I defined the types at the beginning of the file, I was using the wrong handle and that skipped the bottom declaration altogether, Apache didn't recognize the technology and decided to spew out a direct download.
So watch for custom PHP handle definitions on your hosting providers.
What worked for me in the end was:
<IfModule mime_module>
AddType application/x-httpd-ea-php72___lsphp .php .php7 .phtml .htm .html
</IfModule>
Note the "___lsphp" appended at the end of the standard "x-httpd-ea-php72" handle...
God, that ate me up so much...
In Apache and nginx ONLY work .htaccess file:
<FilesMatch "\.html$">
SetHandler php-script
</FilesMatch>
I've also removed AddHandler and AddType from Apache conf (I used plesk).
Add this line to your .htaccess file (Solved)
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php .php4 .php5 .html .htm .phtml .shtml
Try:
application/x-httpd-ea-php5 or
application/x-httpd-ea-php56 for PHP 5.6
I had to change to this after upgrading to EasyApache 4

Try
AddHandler fcgid-script .htm .html
Or
AddHandler x-mapp-php5 .html .htm
add this in .htaccess file
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .php5 .phtml

Cannot parse php inside html

I've been beating myself up trying to get my php parse inside my html. I have used the following in my .htaccess to no avail.
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html - a dialog box pops up asking me to open a php file
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .html - Same
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html - Same
AddHandler php-script .html - just doesnt parse but looking into the source code you can see the php
AddHandler php5-script .html - Same
I would like to point out as well that a normal .php file runs fine on the server.
What gives?
You have to change your server configuration. Go into your httpd.conf or .htaccess and change this line (or something close to it):
addtype application/x-httpd-php .php
to parse .html files like this:
addtype application/x-httpd-php .php .html
and then restart the server
Nevermind, figured it out. It has something to do with my doctype. short_open_tag is enabled so php is trying to parse because it thinks its php.
Solution:
Need to print that particular line with proper php syntax
<?php echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"; ?> ?>
