WARNING!!!!!

NEVER EVER do:

AddHandler php5-script php htm html

This will allow execution of PHP code inside HTML files, you don't
want that. Use:

AddHandler php5-script php

So that only PHP files ending in .php can execute PHP code. With the
former, you open yourself to potential security hazards.
