Certainly there are web servers that do so by default, for example the
Debian-packaged version of Apache httpd. Out of curiosity I downloaded
the open source PHPEclipse IDE, which also treats ".phtml" the same as
".php".
Obviously the choice of file extension comes down to a matter of
preference for web app developers. The ".phtml" extension _was_ to some
degree historical, much like ".php3". However, now I believe use of
".phtml" for PHP 5 applications is on the rise. In order to separate
out presentational templates from the rest of an application, people
find there's a psychological benefit in using a different file extension
for them.
Thanks,
Dave
