.htaccess Allow,Deny

**GamingHybrid** · August 10th, 2007, 12:41 AM

Hello,

I've tried, but it isn't the outcome I've wanted. Basically, I want to restrict access to al lfiles in the folder the .htaccess is in. that worked. However, I still want the site files to be able to call the file, just not having anyone remotely call the file.

I know about readfile() for php coding, but I just want to be able to use the link ONLY on pages in the server, meaning if someone type (lets say a video file) in a video player, via "Open URL", it would not transfer and thus not play. Also, no leeching or

So basically, I was the effect of Deny all, but still allow only the files on the server to call the restricted files (and work).

Anyone have the right code for the .htaccess? I know we got those Apache gurus out here!

Well, I was able to make a .htaccess modification to send a video file to a php file:

Code:

# BEGIN Video
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^videos/([A-Za-z_0-9]*)\.divx$ videos/divx.php?video=$1.divx
</IfModule>
# END Video

Which converts domain.com/videos/myvideo.divx to domain.com/videos/divx.php?video=myvideo.divx

The PHP file does send the video to the PC and it does show in temporary internet files as myvideo.divx with the right file type... the player does show buffering.. then starts to play but for only like 10 seconds and dies.. so close LOL!
