Hello I have two (simple) questions: 1. A RewriteRule: Basically, consider this: www.example.com/foo.bar ... Now, I want that to be also accessible by this: www.example.com/foo (so, actually, it is just the file name, but without the .bar extension) ...
RewriteEngine On RewriteRule ^/foo /foo.bar Use the RewriteLog to debug.
2. Access and authorisation: I have two folders (lets call them 'foo' and 'bar') were I put some things in that should not be downloaded or viewed, however must be included in my website. Basically, the only way to get access to the content being in those two folder is through the normal Apache GET process, and with the right referer (e.g. www.example.com, and *no* other, even an empty referer won't give you access)... I said _basically_, because I know that there are tools to fake headers and such, but this is only to keep the majority of the visitors out of it. Additionally: I have my Javascript and some CSS Files (.js and .css) in it also, however those may be downloaded and viewed (*unless* the referer is *not* www.example.com *or empty*) at will...
The "Prevent Image Theft" example here is close: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/env.html#examples
Additionally: How can I setup Password Authorisation for the foo and bar folders (so no simple 403 error but 401)?
