April Fools! Change Your PHP Pages to ASP…Or Not
I don't know a lot of PHP developers that think very much of ASP. This, of course, sets the stage for a great April fools trick: we're going to change all of the links on our website from ".php" to ".asp" and see how many coworkers we can confuse the hell out of. Granted, most developers with a just few years of experience would figure out the method within a few minutes, but you can probably get the noob with this one.
Step One - Change the Links
<!-- FROM -->
<a href="/some-page.php">Click here</a>
<!-- TO -->
<a href="/some-page.asp">Click here</a>
Step Two - The .htaccess Code
AddType application/x-httpd-php .asp
Have fun and trick some people today!
