That's because there are problems in his script. If you want a
javascript solution (which is not the best), ask in a javascript newsgroup.
The best way to call a PHP file is from a .php file. If you don't want
to change the file extension (i.e. due to bookmarks other users have - a
very valid consideration), change your Apache configuration to redirect
example.html to example.php. More info in alt.apache.configuration.
