How to Use PHP Code in .htm or .html pages – PHP Versions

I am writing some PHP code in my .htm and .html pages but it’s not executing the code.
I must strictly not have to change the page extension.

I have added this handler to the .htaccess page

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php74 .php .htm
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php74 .php .html

My server PHP version is PHP 7.4

What I am missing, how to use PHP code in .htm and .htm pages?

I am doing this on siteguard hosting so if any server configuration I may missing?

    PHP able to work with CLI or .php script files otherwise doesn’t work. Because before from run PHP need compile.

    You can use .htaccess abilities instead write code in HTML files. Just like the following code sample.

    RewriteRule ^view.php?mode=prod&id=([0-9]+) /products/$1.html

    Here Moshe Gross’s method works!

    this is only for test purpose:

    i am tryin in xampp:

    .htaccess

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

    index.html

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="Generator" content="Custa">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<style>p{color:red;font-size:20px;}</style>
    <p>yep yep</p>

    <?php

    echo 'wasn`t so difficult! '.time(); 
    
    ?>
</body>
</html>

    when i access http://localhost/testhtmlphp/ i got this result:

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="Generator" content="Custa">
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<style>p{color:red;font-size:20px;}</style>
    <p>yep yep</p>

    wasn`t so difficult! 1656790012</body>
</html>

    re: if i press F5 (refresh page) the timer change!

    Sometimes the .htaccess file doesn’t work on my machine. Try putting it in the virtual host configuration file (/etc/apache2/sites-enabled/[file name].conf)

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

    Tested on Debian 11 64-bit PHP 7.4, Apache 2.4.53

    I don’t know if your hosting will allow that modifications. It probably will work in the .htaccess file.

    Hopefully it helps!
