NYCPHP Meetup

[Peter Sawczynec]

Okay, well thank you to all for the insightful responses so far.

So this probably is an SEO issue. In that I am looking at a niche all
HTML site 
that has been up for awhile and has gained decent google relevancy in
search results.

I am concerned that changing all the page names from
"topic_specific_file_name.html" to 
"topic_specific_file_name.php" might make all the pages appear as all
new pages to 
google and re-set the search results standing for the entire site. 

So I was considering the *.html parsed thru PHP technique to get PHP
into all the pages.

And in a dark personal corner I did like a little the modicum of
security through obscurity that 
this technique might gain.

So now if anyone with some SEO/search background can weigh in on the
page name change issue 
that would be great.

Warmest regards,

Now that I think about it, Apache's behavior at default is to 
consider embedded php -- so I'm not sure why one would want to add a 
directive to parse html files as php.

Furthermore, if you don't wrap your html code in a heredoc wrapper, 
the html code will cause the script to crash.

So maybe we need to investigate this a bit further -- why do you want 
to do this Peter?

Cheers,
