Hi everyone,

Been doing some reading on security and have decided that I should be storing my include files outside of the document root... Which I understand how to do it, but what I'm wondering, is say I write the Next Killer App (tm). How would I port that code easily off of my server and put it into a downloadable file for the millions of people who will download and run the Next Killer App (tm)?

Err... That doesn't make it very clear... Is there a program for Macintosh or Unix that I could use to grab all the source code from where ever I have it set? Or would I need to make my own? Or should I just quit being lazy and grab it my self? :)


Yes I know I'm answering my own post... :)

Thanks for all the suggestions that I received! It's helped me figure out some of the stuff, and now I just need a project to test some of the stuff with!

Oh, and for an IDE I discovered that Apple XCode works very well as a php editor and file management system. Looks like it will work perfectly!

I do have 2 questions though...

#1. When including files outside of the webroot do you need to specify the entire path? Like for me, that would be something like: "/ volumes/raider/webserver/includes/projectname/includeme.php" or can I just stop at: "/webserver/includes/projectname/includeme.php"?

#2. Anyone got any small programming jobs that I can hone my skills with? :) You know, the kind of projects that you guru's don't want to do because you're too busy writting the Next Killer App (tm) but would be perfect learning experience/easy way to put some cash in the pocket? :)
