This link:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/core.html#include
shows that apache allows files to be included in it's configure files, but it did not work when I tried it in .htaccess. Does anyone know if it's supposed to?
In one site I put this in .htaccess:
Include /home/test/public_html/dynamic/dyn_htaccess.inc
in the test account's public_html/dynamic directory, I put a dyn_htaccess.inc file with this content:
ErrorDocument 404 /home/test/public_html/404_error.php
I verified that 404_error.php exists in the specified path but when I accessed the account where I put the include directive in .htaccess, I got a 500 server error.
