Php is served up to the browser as html. The spiders "see" php pages as html like a browser. Try to "view source" on a php page and you'll see what I mean.

So to Google, there's no difference.

Yep, there's no difference really

It's just so that the actual web server (usually Apache) can know what file-type the file is, and then know whether it needs to do anything special (i.e. with HTML, just serve up the page; with PHP, parse the page, run the code, etc; with .asp; parse the ASP code; with a PDF, serve up the download)

So yeah, the page extension/file-type isn't anything to do with Google. It's just an 'instruction' for the web server and client's browser.
