title: html files parsed as php but shown as html
body: <p>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.</p>
  
  <p>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:</p>
  
  <p>stuff I've tried:</p>
  
  <pre><code>            # 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
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>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</p>
  
  <p>thanks</p>
