markyoung1984 Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 My ISP has told me that to modify settings in their php.ini file I can create my own php.ini file and insert it into my web directory. However, I want this file to be hidden from browsers for security reasons. Currently when typing www.mydomain.co.uk/php.ini the PHP file contents are displayed in my browser. I know this happens because the browser doesn't know what a ini file is and so displays it as plain text but I don't want it to be displayed. How can I stop it being displayed?
