apacheguy Posted January 15, 2007 Share Posted January 15, 2007 So you want to make the htaccess file redirect people who access the directory to login.php? Why wouldn't you just make login.php the index file for that directory?

techker Posted January 15, 2007 Author Share Posted January 15, 2007 well i have lots of directorys.that is why a htaccess would be better and the site is all done so it would be long to redo to incorporate the login script..

steviewdr Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 The default apache setting has:DirectoryIndex index.html index.cgi index.pl index.php index.xhtmlWhen you install php you have to add index.php to the above list also.The word DirectoryIndex - means index or home page (or the first page to be looked for in a directory). So basically with the htaccess file you are overriding the default and saying that the DirectoryIndex is login.php.-steve Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/34137-htaccess-with-existing-login-script/#findComment-161835 Share on other sites More sharing options...
