Thanks for this code! I assume it works with HTML also, I will definitely give it a try!

That code is specifically for removing PHP. To remove the .html extension, just rewrite the code a little bit

RewriteEngine on 
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}\.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ $1.html [NC,L]
