[PHP/HTML] index.html over index.php

How do I make the 'index.html' overtake the 'index.php' file?

I need to do this because, I need a homepage for my website, and the 'index.php' is a script that also need in the same directory.

So when someone types in 'www.example.com', I want it to show 'www.example.com/index.html', rather than 'www.example.com/index.php'.

Thanks

PHP Code:

---

header('location: index.html'); 


---

Or just rename index.php...
