The slowdown of just running raw HTML through PHP was once benchmarked as about 5 to 10 %.
You could, in theory, use .htaccess and <Files> to ForceType specific .html files as PHP, while leaving the rest of your .html files as static. I am not recommending this, just being pedantic. :-) Definitely better to either do them all and take performance hit, which is probably irrelevant to a beginner, or plan better now and strip .xyz from the URLs. ymmv. Personally, I've been quite happy for over a decade running all .html through PHP, on 99% of the sites I work on. If it's big enough to *need* static content, they usually have already gone the route of CDN and have static HTML off on those nodes anyway, in my limited experience. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
