Executing a command line in a directory and its subdirectories

I'm finally about to make the jump from PHP's mysql driver to the newer mysqli one using the mysqli converter tool.

The tool is called by this command line:
Code:
php /usr/share/nginx/html/rather/converter/cli.php -d [a dir] -p ".php,.shtml,.inc" -u -b -v -w  >> /tmp/convert.log

e.g. at the web root:
Code:
php /usr/share/nginx/html/rather/converter/cli.php -d /usr/share/nginx/html -p ".php,.shtml,.inc" -u -b -v -w >> /tmp/convert.log

It's a fast tool and I'm trying to minimize downtime and errors I might make by missing a subdir level.

How would I get a list, starting at /usr/share/nginx/html and drilling down, then feed it to that command line?

Thanks for any pointers.
