Re: whats .htaccess?
Hi,
htaccess (Hypertext Access) is the default name of Apache's directory-level configuration file. It provides the ability to customize configuration directives defined in the main configuration file. The configuration directives need to be in .htaccess context and the user needs appropriate permissions. regards P Shah - www.dcpweb.co.uk |

Re: whats .htaccess?
I've only just started using .htaccess and .htpasswd files. The access file lets me password protect a private members' site. Secondly - for my use - I can specify a 'homepage' other than index.html (i.e. for a forwarded url).
