So, I moved into a new host. I was using some code in my htaccess to parse css files as PHP. But in this new host, it didn't work. I googled and googled and tried every code I find. All single of them didn't work. Here's some of codes I've tried:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .css
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .css
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php53 .css
AddType application/x-httpd-php .css
My PHP version is 5.3.22 and my webhost is using Linux. But they all didn't work. Please help.
From Parse js/css as a PHP file using htaccess
You should just need to add this to your htaccess
<FilesMatch "\.css$">
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
Header set Content-type "text/css"
</FilesMatch>
If you're getting a 500 Internal Server Error with the Header line, make sure you have mod_headers enabled in your apache config, if mod_headers is not installed and your provider will not install/enable it, you will need to rename your css file to .php and add into your new php file
header("Content-type: text/css");
I just tried making a folder called "style.css" and put a file inside called "index.php" and it works in chrome!
Of course you need to put header("Content-type: text/css"); in the php file and I'm not sure how well it works in other browsers or email clients

My apache runs php files with or without .php extension, How can I disable this and force apache to run php files only with .php extension. I don't want to use .htaccess, this might be an apache config. does anyone know how to disable this option?
Thanks for the answer but using Addtype as you mentioned did not ever work for me, all by itself, even in PHP 5..
Here's what I've tried that DOESN'T work with this version of PHP:
Options +ExecCGI
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .nusuffix
AddHandler x-httpd-php5 .php .nusuffix
This worked for PHP 5. Now, does not.
This is for a hosted account, so I must do this via .haccess.
You can check your httpd.conf what extensions are configured, it need need to be following. if there is change in your file you can change it to following and restart the apache
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

I'm using PhpStorm 2016 with php language level 5.6 and the interpeter is PHP 5(5.6.24) and xampp version 3.2.2 .
I'm trying to add some php code in html page,
I created a file .htaccess in the same folder where my html file located, and put AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm inside it, added <?php echo "example" ?> but it doesn't show up.
I even tried <FilesMatch "\.html$">
ForceType application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>, AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm and AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm but nothing work, don't know what eles to do.
Hope you can help me with any idea.
Thank you.
You may need to edit the Apache config file, and check if AllowOverride is set to none. If AllowOverride is set to None, .htaccess files are completely ignored.
See httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/core.html#allowoverride
To allow only the ForceType directive it would be
AllowOverride FileInfo
or if you want all entries in your .htaccess to be honored, then
AllowOverride All
In order to get xampp to interpret the file as PHP, you will need to set the Apache Server web-root to the base of your project (where the html files are) and access the webserver via the server (HTTP in a web-browser).
It sounds like you're trying to access the file directly with the browser (skipping the PHP processor).
So I'm trying to configure my .htaccess file so that it can runs the PHP code inside the HTML files.
When I go to mysite.com/thefile.php, it runs it correctly without any problem. Same if I go to mysite.com/thefile.html. But if I add <?php echo "Hello"; ?> inside the HTML file, it doesnt display anything. In fact, when I right click "View source code", it displays the php lines.
Here's what I tried with my .htaccess file:
RemoveHandler .html .htm
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html .htm
I also a tried with just
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html .htm
But it displays a "500 Internal Server Error" that says:
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.
The most common causes of this problem are errors in the app's .htaccess file or incorrect file or directory permissions preventing the web server from reading the .htaccess file.
More information about this error is available in the app's Apache error log at:
/srv/users/SYSUSER/log/APPNAME/APPNAME_apache.error.log
I'm quite new to web development in general, and I want to mention that, except from these 2/1 lines in the .htaccess file, I have nothing else. Maybe I'm missing some lines in it? Just a guess
Thanks guys (and gals if they exist!)
With Ubuntu/Apache 2.4.x, in your /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/php7.1.conf or equivalent, you could add:
<FilesMatch ".+\.html$">
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php
</FilesMatch>
(But you shouldn't do this at all! Use .php files for PHP code.)
I'm stuck trying to figure out what directives my htaccess file for a directory needs. To give a little background, I was messing around with AddType and AddHandler to try to get html files to run php in them. I was adding directives like:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
and
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .php .html
That didn't work, so I tried adding handlers as well:
AddHandler x-httpd-php .php .html
and
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php .html
That still didn't give me what I wanted so I tried many combinations, like:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
AddHandler php-script .php .html
I even tried combinations with SetHandler
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php .html
AddHandler php-script .php .html
SetHandler application/x-httpd-php .php html
I tried every imaginable combination of AddType and AddHandler found on the web.
!===== This is important ======!
I realized that its not good practice to have php run your html files just so you can run php in the html. I am no longer trying to do that. The only reason I'm posting this part above is to give you an idea on some things I've changed. These changes were made to the htaccess file at a directory above the root.
!==============================!
Now that I'm no longer trying to run my php in html files I cleared the AddType, AddHandler, and SetHandler directives from the htaccess file. But now I get an internal server error when trying to run php files.
So I tried putting some stuff back. If I had a handle, the browser now downloads the php instead of running it.
I should note that any php running below the directory I changed works fine. But everything in that directory or subdirectory of that directory has this same problem with php files.
I have tried deleting the htaccess file in that directory, but that does not work, I get an internal error.
If I turn Override off, I get an internal error.
Something I changed is persisting in that directory and I'm wondering how to either
a. turn it off
b. add the correct handler to that htaccess file so that php files are run again (like they are on the rest of the server)
I did have the exact same issue so I deleted all the content of .htaccess and started trying only with handlers until I figured it out. My local .htaccess copy had the following SetHandler:
AddHandler x-httpd-php5-3 .php
In my case it worked after changing it to:
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .php
It seems the whole trick is only the handler, I tried this solution in 2 different servers with different configurations and in both cases just changing AddHandler worked. If this doesn't work for you try a different handler for php.
Hope it helps.
Just realized I left this up unanswered after I solved the problem. If someone has a similar problem and is reading this : Check the permissions on all associated folders. I can't remember the specifics but one of the directories involved (I believe it was the htaccess directory) had permissions that persisted after changing some things and then changing them back.
I have many years experience of working with Apache/PHP/MySQL directly and have only just started using WAMP.
I installed WAMP last week and had my first 4 PHP/MySQL websites up and running immediately. How much easier is this I began to think! That is until I added a fifth site and cannot get php to parse any php file below the websites root directory.
I have a test.php file containing just the word 'hello', ho HTML tags and no PHP directives.
If I place this into /wamp/www/ob/test.php it works, if I place it into /wamp/www/ob/html/test.php the browser comes up with 'You have chosen to open test.php, what should Firefox do with this file? Basically php failed to parse it.
My other sites are working fine with identical setup and this site plus three others were downloaded using Filezilla.
Can anybody help please before I uninstall WAMP and go back to installing Apache/MySQL/PHP manually.
Either the php handler is not turned on for that directory, or the content-type of the returned data is set wrong.
My WampDeveloper Pro setup has this...
<Directory "C:/WampDeveloper/Websites/*/webroot">
AddType text/html .php .php4 .php5 .phps
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .php .php4 .php5
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
</Directory>
This turns on PHP for all website folders.
Has a DefaultType text/html in httpd.conf for fallback.
Also check any .htaccess files, they might be setting content-type to something other than 'text/html'.
The pages on the Internet that explain how to make Apache parse the PHP that you add to a file with the extension HTML suggest this:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .php .htm
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html .php .htm
If your Apache server is configured for php5 but not php, then the result, I believe, is the refusal described. I changed what I added to .htaccess to this (notice the digit 5):
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .html .php .htm
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html .php .htm
That fixed the problem for me.
