Re: Re: PHP source code

A solution that I use is to put important information in an include file, and store it in a User-Authentication protected folder, ie. /admin/ This adds one extra layer of protection to your files, and keeps the average joe-surfer from being able to get the files.

Then be sure that nobody is able to read it. Should be no problem ;) There is no possibility to read php source, the webserver will always count it as php file and the file will be parsed by php. Sure its possible to get the file over ftp, ssh, imap, etc, but this is the problem with all the secret-file stuff. bye, blizz On Thu, 19 Sep 2002 20:15:06 +0200, oliverwitt@t-online.de (Oliver Witt) wrote: Stephan Seidt schrieb:

Hi, Is there any way to read php source code? I didn't think so until I heard about people you have done that... Kind regards, Oliver

If you mean php's source, download it ;)

Well, but if I write a script with MySQl, there has to be my user name and password in the source code. If anybody could read it, anybody could have access to my databases! Oliver -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
