If you have administrative control over your webserver, you can make any 
filetype be processed as PHP.  I know of several programmers that make 
use of the .htm extension for their PHP pages, and .html are the 'real' 
html pages

I recall it used to be an issue that anything but .html and .htm would 
take a hit from the search engines, but I would hope that the fact that 
you can mask programmed pages would have changed this by now.
