I bought a web host service from a company named easyspace.com. I have tried to ask them this question many times but until now there is no response from them at all. According to the security issue of placing password in script I brought up days ago, some one on this news group suggested me to place such script in directory above %public_html directory. The problem is I do not know how to access such directory. Is it because the service I bought does not allow me to do it? or if it is accessible, how to do it? I know this is a silly question but please help me. Sailom
