Re: [PHP] Can I fopen() files in .htaccess protected directories?

2002-04-08 Thread Dalton Hunter

Hi, actually it is located at a secret URL , just using .htaccess for added
protection. Turns out the example I gave does indeed work but unlike in
Unix, the password cannot have a ? in it since it is being passed in the
URL.

 If you're only going to be reading it from inside your PHP program, why
 not just put the target resource at a secret URL rather than behind
 .htaccess password protection? That's pretty much equivalent to a
 password.
