dsaba Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 how can I restrict access to files within a specific folder that have a specific file extension with .htaccess? for example: dir of /files/ file.pdf otherfile.pdf thatfile.pdf index.html anotherpage.php anotherpage2.html in the /files/ directory i want to only allow access to every file that is not '.pdf' so the only publicly accessible files will be: index.html anotherpage.php anotherpage2.html Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/82566-restrict-access-to-all-files-within-folder-with-a-specific-extension/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

dsaba Posted December 21, 2007 Author Share Posted December 21, 2007 great it works but it restricts my server ip from accessing the files too how can I restrict the access only for ips that are not my host, aka remote access ?
