You may try this to remove .php extensions completely from your file and to avoid infinite loop :

RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC] RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=301,L] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?$ $1.php [NC,L]

This code will work in Root/.htaccess, Be sure to change the RewriteBase if you want to place this to a htaccess file in sub directory.

thanks very much it worked but the code is difficult for me to understand.
Yes I agree. .htaccess rules are majorly regular expression which works with the parameters and conditions mentioned for request or filenames.
