the new <code><Location></code> directive allows protection by

The internal imagemap handling code has been rewritten and
reorganized, adding new handling of default, base and relative URLs,
and support for creating non-graphical menus for use with clients that
do not support imagemaps.
! <li><b><a href="mod_userdir.html">Improved UserDir Directive</a></b><br>

beginning with the "<code>~</code>" character) at directories other
