Can you please give an example? No -- notice the "~" above, which restricts applications to URLs beginning in "~". The advantage of using <Location> is that it is evaluated after .htaccess files and overrides them, so it is a good way to assure that .htaccess files are overridden. See http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/howto/htaccess.html#how In your particular case, as long as you are turning on php only for specific directories that are not parent directories of your user directories, then you don't really need the <Location> section, since php will be off by default and your AllowOverride prevents it from being turned on in .htaccess files. The <Location> section is just an extra guarantee.
