To me it also seems more portable across > hosts to have access outside of your webroot vs. access to .htaccess It's far more portable, because every HTTP server out there knows how to handle paths, but only Apache knows how to handle an .htaccess file. So you can forget being able to use that same code on IIS, tinyhttpd, Boa, AnalogX SimpleServer:WWW (an old favorite!), et cetera. If it only works with one specific HTTP server, that's a serious limit. -- </Dan> Daniel P.
