I'm hoping there's a file I can stick into my file system that will tell the shared hosting that in my directory .html documents can run PHP scripts. Right now I have to rename them index.php and that's going to really be a problem on my site. Does anyone know a way to change that setting?

yah you can try doing it in a .htacess file , you would prob have to put it in every folder that you want this to work
add this to an existing .htacess file or make up a text file, name it .htaccess, add the following:
DirectoryIndex index.html
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php
you may need this too...........
<Files *.html>
options execcgi
SetHandler cgi-script
</Files>
hope this helps

you will have to update your .HTACCESS document or make one that is appropriate http://www.javascriptkit.com/howto/htacc...

Howzit
PHP only runs in file.php only. If you want to use PHP coding the extension should be (file.php). Alternatively you can use JavaScript. I am not a big fan of JavaScript... it's pretty much dead technology. If like me you are not, then the only choice you have is to rename the files to have a .php extension
[apologies to the JavaScript fans... i just can't hold my tongue. Have to tell it like it is]
Good luck

Assuming your server supports it, you can use a server side include to call a php script. An example where we've done this may be seen at projectenlightenment.wcpss.net/index.htm... It dynamcially renders Upcoming Events in the .html page.
If you don't want to rename your pages and only have a few pages requiring dynamic content, this approach may work for you. Otherwise, you will most likely need to go the .htaccess route.
