.htaccess nginx addhandler

For web servers using PHP as apache module:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .html .htm

For web servers running PHP as CGI:

AddHandler application/x-httpd-php .html .htm

I have an Nginx server and I want to run .js files and and .htm files as PHP, so I will have full PHP code inside them. Anyone know how to configure the Nginx to do this?

Passing to fastcgi didn't work for me. After a few hours of searching, I have found solution here: http://ffct.cc/solving-nginx-php-fpm-access-denied-issue/

In short:

since PHP versions > 5.3.8, to make it works, you should add directive to your php-fpm.conf:

security.limit_extensions = .php .html .js

The recognition sign is "Access denied." (notice that it's different from HTTP error 403) when accesssing .html or .js file.
