Would it be possible?

To set up forums in an .html or .htm file instead of .php? And if so, could I set it up on freewebs?

No, HTML isn't dynamic enough to keep up with a forum. Besides, you need a database and I doubt Freewebs gives you one.

Look for another free host, maybe something like 100WebSpace. Or look for a free forum host.

Ya, from what I see, you have to pay to set one up.

(just switched from freewebs)

Yeah, I just noticed that too...
Would it be possible to use a different database? One on my computer(Oracle has an express edition that's free...)?

Why not just look for a free phpBB forum on t3h google? You're bound to find something...

I have a MySQL Database on my 110mb.com account and I don't pay anything

Must be some new thing while us old users get it for free

Yep, the old boxes get it free while the new boxes have to pay 9.95.

Oh well, I'll just stick with freewebs, at least the forums are free...
