Apache is one of the most flexible web server around. And one of the features that aids it in being flexible is a hidden file which goes by the name '.htaccess'. This file is used by web site administrators to make configuration changes on a per-directory basis especially when the administrator does not have access to the main configuration file of the apache web server.You can use this file (.htaccess) to password protect files in a particular directory in your website, give mod-rewrite rules, force HTTP requests to use secure socket layer and so on. In fact, one can write just about any rule that he/she can configure in the main configuration file of the apache webserver.
But if you find writing code to be a hassle, then this webpage will aid in creating a .htaccess file from scratch with the parameters of your choice.
