You get your:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .htm
added to the apache config file on the server.
However, you should note if if you do that, any .htm file will be sent
to PHP by apache, even if there is no PHP in it. That adds an extra step
to getting your files served up. That is why people have been suggesting
to change the files which use PHP to have a .php extension.
Personally I add:
AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml
to the apache config file, and use that for files containing any PHP.
That way the PHP interpreter is only involved when a file actually has
PHP in it.
