Can this hack be installed to a regular html page? The instructions say the following:

I want to install it on my index.html page. I'd really rather not change that to index.php or index.shtml etc, as it's currently listed on google etc as index.html

Can I use this without changing the page type/extension?

With an Apache server, you can use the "XBitHack on" directive in an .htaccess file and chmod the html file to be executable. This adds to server load somewhat but will parse the html files for server side includes. (If you are on a shared host, check with host staff first).
