Will you modify each web page manually and add PHP code? This sound little impractical and monotonous task. To get rid of this exercise, you can parse HTML web pages as PHP using .htacccess file. All you need to do is, locate .htaccess file, add one of the following line according to your setup and save the file.
If your web server is using suPHP add following line in .httaccess.
If your web server is using suPHP add following line in .httaccess.
AddHandler x-httpd-php .html .htm

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm
If your server is using PHP5 try following.Â
AddType application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm
OR
AddHandler application/x-httpd-php5 .html .htm
