Re: How to adress pictures stored outside of the http server root?

Think about what you are doing a bit here. You want to store the pictures outside of your document_root, yet you want to reference them directly from a web page. That makes absolutely no sense. By definition, something that can be accessed directly through your web server must be accessible from your document_root. The way to do this is to write a little PHP wrapper script that you stick in your document_root that does a readfile() on the file stored outside of the document_root. -Rasmus On Thu, 21 Mar 2002, andy wrote: > Hi there, > > I am trying to put my images outside the http server root.
