not allowing directory files to list out

Recommended Posts

i am using Apache server (xamp) in windows 2000.

 

i want to disallow user to list out the files in folders such as includes and images.

 

eg:

    localhost/website/includes

 

  in Includes folder i have connection files based on php and other files also.

 

what i want is when user type : localhost/webiste/inlcudes/ or localhost/webiste/inlcudes/connection.php

 

i want user not to access that folder using .htaccess.

Any one who can support me please.

 

  I will be waiting for the suggestion

 

thanks

place an .htaccess file in the directory and use the following directives:

 

if you want to deny all access (this means no directory list, or file can be loaded) use this:

deny from all

...p.s. - php can still access these files from a filesystem level, it will just block web access

 

if you want to just block directory listings, but still allow files to be loaded (good for things like an image directory) use this:

Options -Indexes

 

note: if the above don't work, let me know. then we'll have to change the httpd.conf file
