Use the so-called "Web decoy" technique. Basically you put your html files in another folder outside your html root. Then redirect all requests using ON WEB CONNECTION. For every http request 4D cannot serve directly, it uses ON WEB CONNECTION.
This is more elaborated e.g. here: How to skip over HTTP and redirect to HTTPS https://kb.4d.com/assetid=75313 How to skip over HTTP and redirect to HTTPS: Part 2 (The Web decoy folder) https://kb.4d.com/assetid=75753 And there was a book "The Web Companion" by David Adams, it's a bit old now, but the technique remains the same. If you can get a copy ... HTH Regards Lutz -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Betreff: Web aficionados - Not allow user to access file directly Hi Web Experts, I don't want the web users to access html files directly, without going through ON WEB CONNECTION. e.g. http://myweb/foobar.html If "foobar.html" exists in the web folder, Users can put in this in the address and it will pull up the web page, but will not process the 4D Tags, etc. Very, very funky. So, I'm probably being a dope, but does anyone know what I can do to prevent accessing html files directly?
