I'm not the machine admin. So I don't know how I would be able to configure Apache to parse html files through both.

There has got to be a way to do this.

How can I make php script serve up an *.html file 'server-parsed' for SSI's?

The goal is to pre-process all *.html files with php script, but the SSI's need to be handled too. Problem with using 'virtual' is that it creates a loop via the .htaccess handler setting/action.

.htaccess
# Enable SSI
Options +Includes

# HTML Handler
AddHandler HTML .html
Action HTML /HTML.php

HTML.php
<?PHP

<snip>

$file = $_SERVER['PATH_TRANSLATED'];
include $file;
?>

A terrible approach. But just set your Apache configuration up to parse html files through both.

Try alt.apache.configuration for more info.

Actually, I must modify my statement. The correct way is to have a .php extension for those files which have PHP, and .html or .shtml extension for those which have html only (depending on your server configuration). Use SSI in your .(s)html files and php in your .php files.

But you seem to be stuck with a mishmash of both. So handling it in your Apache configuration is the better way to go.
