Hi
I set up a .htpasswd file in the root of my account on a VPS and put a .htaccess in a sub folder /public-html/hq containing a directives to password protect this folder:-AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/charlie/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
require valid-user . . .
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
When in a page in the sub folder /public-html/hq, [which happens to post to itself] I do get the password popup - and also if I revisit a cached call to a https:// URL in that folder.
The situation was un-liveable, though I have moved the 'force SSL' directives into the .htacess in /public-html/hq:-RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /home/charlie/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
require valid-user
I suppose I could bare having to subject the user to this.
I just wondered if there was some workaround - like having the .htpasswd only apply to https ? (or maybe some other subtle solution ?)
Suggestions would be much appreciated
Many thanks
Guy Hackney

Hi, a client has a .co.uk address and a .com address for the same company. The .co.uk is an alias to the .com in case anyone types .co.uk by mistake.
At the moment then if a user type companyname.co.uk they are looking at companyname.com but the url is displayed in the address bar as .co.uk
The client wants to change this so that if a user types in the .co.uk they of course will see the .com site but he wants the .com url to appear in the address bar.
I have been informed that a .htaccess file is best for this but I can't get my head around how to do it without creating an infinite loop.
I would appreciate some clear thinking 
Many thanks,
Keith Hulse

Hi,
I've set up a site of mine here, http://www.roadsout.com. I've set it up so that the main folder for the site is 'roadsout' which is a subfolder in the root folder.
I'm using this .htaccess to make this happen.
Code:
RewriteEngine on
Options +FollowSymlinks
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} roadsout.com
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !roadsout/
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ roadsout/$1 [L]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.roadsout.com/.*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://www.roadsout.com$ [NC]
RewriteRule .*\.(.*.*.*jpg|jpeg|gif|png|bmp)$ http://www.roadsout.com [R,NC]
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !^/roadsout.*$
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
It works, but when I click on some links on my site, it starts showing the subfolder inside my site too, for example,
http://www.roadsout.com/roadsout/index. ... e&Itemid=1
Can you give me some .htaccess code that will permanently hide that folder from showing up in my site's links?
Why do I want to make a subfolder and run it like that? Because it makes it easier for me to manage my folders and doesn't make a mess of things. Plus I want to host other sites too, so each site will have it's own folder which will be easy to manage.

Below is my folder structure
When user comes to
1. "/mysite" the index.php in mysite will redirect to /mysqite/data/modules/mysite1/interfaces/login.php
So I made .htaccess here
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI}
2. login.php page
<form class="loginForm" action="../../../../login_trainee.php" method="POST" id="Login">
The data of user should be encrypted and send to login_trainee.php which is in "/mysite"
I think I have to make .htaccess for "/interfaces" but the problem is
after login user should return to use http in the rest of site even if in "/interfaces" too.
Before login : https..../mysqite/data/modules/mysite1/interfaces/login.php
After login : http...../mysqite/data/modules/mysite1/interfaces/index.php
Anyone have some idea about this?
thank you

Whilst reading Mozilla's documentation style guide, I came across this:
| Quote: |
Drop the file extension when linking to files on developer.mozilla.org. This way we can change the format of a file without changing the content. Also, files can expand to become directories later on.
|
I think that suggestion is absolutely excellent and am wondering how it can be implemented. Of course, .htaccess if involved, so perhaps you can help.
Thanks in advance.

I am trying to redirect some of the pages on my website but these pages are placed all over the place. I would like to redirect the user to its respective folder, where an index file is already serving the purpose i.e.
user types: www.domain.com/multimedia/rock/playlist.xml
redirect to: www.domain.com/multimedia/rock/
user types: www.domain.com/multimedia/rock/1/2/3/1/playlist.xml
redirect to: www.domain.com/multimedia/rock/1/2/3/1/
user types: www.domain.com/multimedia/rock/1/anotherfolder/3/1/playlist. xml
redirect to: www.domain.com/multimedia/rock/1/anotherfolder/3/1/
and so on. As you have guessed, I am trying to redirect access from playlist.xml files to their respective folders. this is because my playlists are being indexed in the google and users wold not be able to understand them because these files only contain links in a text format. Also I do not wish to block these playlist from being indexed because more search results are matching my website because of these playlist.xml files.
I would really appreciate if someone could provide me with a sort of regular expression that can be applied.

Hey, I am hoping you guys and girls can help me.
What I am trying to do is this
1) Check the referrer for a certain domain.
2) If that referrer is found, redirect the user to another website.
The code I have redirects ALL users to the RewriteRule URL. I am at a loss as to what to do next.
So in short, when a user goes to www.site.com (or any file underneath that such as www.site.com/folder) if the referrer is google.co.uk I want them to go www.anothersite.com
What am I doing wrong?
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://google.co.uk/.*$ [NC]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://google.co.uk$ [NC]
RewriteRule .*\.(.*)$ http://anothersite.com/ [R,NC]

I am new to .htaccess and I want some help.
I have created a website for a client that wants to upload videos and visitors have to pay to view the videos. The problem that I have is the following. I am using PHP, MySql and Linux Server and when the visitor pays and and clicks on the link to see the videos, if he goes to view source from his explorer he can see the path of the video so he can download them without paying.
I want someone to help me with the .htaccess commands to allow the videos to play in the explorer only through a php script and not allow the videos to be downloaded or viewed directly in the explorer if anyone knows the excact path of the video.

I have a very limited knowledge of .htaccess, I have taken over webhosting an established site, the original webmaster just dumped everything in the root folder and it is a jumbled mess of gif,jpg,html files, all of which the owner wants to keep on the site. What I would like to do is move all the image files to an image folder and use a redirect in the htaccess file.
I have tried several strings I have found on different forums that were doing similar requests but none of them seem to work on my server, or I don't have the right syntax.
Basically what I want to do is moved all the old jpg/gif files to a folder named 'old_img' and do a simular folder for 'old_html'
If any one could give me the correct syntax it would be appreciated, I have tried:
RedirectMatch (.*)\.gif$ http://www.mysite/old_img/$1.gif
RedirectMatch 301 /(*.gif) http://www.mysite/old_img/$1
RedirectMatch (.*)\.gif$ http://www.mysite/old_img/$1.gif
Thanks beforehand for any help.

Hi,
Because people use to link directly to my swf files, I enabled the hotlink protection from the website cpanel, however if in IE7 everything is fine, the html pages do not work properly in Firefox and are not displayed at all in Safari.
Any idea to protect my files and get them properly viewed in Firefox and Safari?
Is this possible to make special rule in a htaccess file for Firefox?
thank you
