This may be more of an Apache or Mysql question than PHP, but I've heard many suggest that when using AES encryption/decryption with MySQL, they say to store the key in a file not in your "htdocs" folder. Does anyone know how this can be done so it can still be accessed by PHP scripts, but not directly (ie. by someone typing the path into the address bar of a browser).

This thread is more than a year old. Please don't revive it unless you have something important to add.
