Hello BP,You're right - this is a question of what is allowed in .htaccess files. Check out http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/core.html#locationmatch, and look at the "Context" section. Since it doesn't include .htaccess, you can't use a LocationMatch in a .htaccess file. There isn't any AllowOverride which will change this.

Dear friends, I get an error message: "[alert] [client xxx] /home/account/public_html/.htaccess: <LocationMatch not allowed here" The host admin thinks it is a cgi-error, but I'm more inclined to think it has to do with what directives are allowed in .htaccess files as described at < http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/howto/htaccess.html#what> It seems there should be an AllowOverride directive somewhere, but where? And what should it look like? Can I fix this problem or do I have to have the host admin do it? I'm aware this may be a FAQ. I have unsuccessfully looked around for an answer, but I don't really know how to formulate the question, so I ask your forgiveness and hope somebody has some advice. /BP
