Is there a way to have .php extensions show as .html extensions on the
internet. Some sort of rewrite?

You could, but setting up your server to parse .html files as PHP.
However, this will create a lot of overhead on the server unnecessarily
parsing non-html pages.

But if you want to know how to do it (and why not to), try
alt.apache.configuration (assuming you're using Apache, of course).

Yes,
this is what OpenSEF does with Joomla URLs

Probably easiest with Apache's MultiViews (assuming you use Apache, that
is ;)). See <http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/content-negotiation.html>.

But note that there are good arguments to not have filename extensions
in URLs at all. See <http://www.w3.org/TR/chips/#cp3.1and
<http://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI.html>.
