Technically, this is not a PHP problem, but I
will be nice...
Add this the your .htaccess file
Files foo.bar
order allow,deny
deny from all
/Files
You can also...
Files *.bar
order allow, deny
deny from all
/Files

stop a file called foo.bar from being downloaded with a web server ?
Say you'r web site's name is foobar.net.
...and...
Script-kiddy Johny knows that,
but also knows that you'r secret file is called foo.bar
and it is saved in the root dir. of you'r web site.
in a http browser little Johny
can simply type in http://www.foobar.net/foo.bar;
to download it, since the web server (i am on)
will trigger the clients download box to open,
because its not a wrapped extension, or php, or htm, or so .
I have looked into the .htaccess file and added the directive
IndexIgnore *.*
there'r millions of directives and i am looking at them now,
But please tell me if there IS NOT a directive I can add to the htacces file
to keep little Johny from downloading the file.
Because then i might just look the whole day long for nothing !
Thanx a lot for your time
Ben
enjoy the day :-)
