Re: how to hide dbconnect file if its in published directory?

there should not be any problem if your web server is configured to parse .inc extentions as PHP, in wich case, even if the file is called separately, the server will strip php tags and send normal html output. regards At 00:11 10/07/01, Noah Spitzer-Williams wrote:

Hey guys,

    I come for advice once again. Say i have a file dbconnect.inc which

connects to my database. Now if this file is located in a directory accessible for to the web is there anyway that if someone types in that file i can detect it being accessed, instead of included, and redirect them elsewhere?
