You can try this:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configuration>
    <system.webServer>
        <rewrite>
            <rules>
                <rule name="Serve PHP files sans ext" stopProcessing="true">
                    <match url="^(.*)$" />
                    <conditions logicalGrouping="MatchAll">
                        <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}" matchType="IsFile" ignoreCase="false" negate="true" />
                        <add input="{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php" matchType="IsFile" ignoreCase="false" />
                    </conditions>
                    <action type="Rewrite" url="{R:1}.php" />
                </rule>
            </rules>
        </rewrite>
    </system.webServer>
</configuration>

htaccess is the best way to ago. Try: AddType application/x-httpd-php .html in your htaccess file.

Member Avatar for rajendher

sir , htaccess is not supporting my server thats why using web.config (windows hosting)

@raj. i apologize if my post was a little curt but i'm on bacation and im using a mobile so i was just trying to point you in the right direction. complete code solutions aren't really what this site is about though. we did not know that you were on iis so its a good thing that i didnt waste 10 minutes of my time typing out a htacces solution.
