that's why I made my decision. Not to say it's the right one, just a
step in the right direction. 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.


I didn't realize that... That's good info. I always hear people talking about .htaccess files on all the different lists I'm on so I thought it was an industry standard thing :)

Now I can shut my brain down because I learned my 1 new thing for today!
