No problemo. Just remember, only .php files will match the first
case, while anything containing `htm` will be included in the second
case (.htm, .html .phtml, .xhtml, et cetera). So you may need to
modify it a bit if you have certain cases where you want to remove all
..html files, for example, but not .phtml (an archaic PHP file
extension).
