A “handler” is an internal Apache command that tells the Apache server software what action to perform when a file is called.

Hi guys…

Today i was trying to add apache handlers to one of my webserver through cpanel.

I was actually having some doubt how to proceed because i was not sure of which handler i should give for the php files to run without .PHP extension.

After a lot of trial and error methods i have found out the Handler.

Here i have described how to add a handler with an example

To add an Apache handler:

1. Click on the Apache handlers button on the home page.
2. Enter the file extension in the Extension(s) field. You need to add the . before the extension name.
3. Enter the Apache handler in the Handler field.
4. Click on the Add button.

You can also see below the list of default handlers in the cpanel

For example if you want to add a file with extension say your name let your name be TOM

And you have a file named INDEX.TOM in which lot of PHP scripts are written , you want the apache server to compile it as a regular PHP file then the HANDLERS come in to effect

All you have to do is type .TOM extenstion in the Extension(s) field.

and type application/x-httpd-php in the HANDLER field and press Add button.

Now it will show a message that the

AHMHandler Added
The handler application/x-httpd-php has been assigned to the extensions .TOM

OR

Similar to the above message.

Now you are done

type on the browser

http://www.yoursitename.com/index.tom

and you will get your php scripts inside this file compiled successfully.

I want your valuable comments also.

Thanks Guys.
