I do not think .htaccess would be the best candidate for that use - am I wrong?One thing I was thinking of doing was to move the files to a temp download area, give them the temp link and clean those out daily - but I don't really like the idea of constantly writing the files and cleaning them up - but this is not going to be that popular (its for accountants books on standards and guidance) so I could do it that way if I can not come up with something better. -- ====================================================================== Britt Thompson | PO Box 1989 FishingWorld.com | Lindale, TX 75771 Easttexas.com | Ph: (903) 882-8877 / Fax: (903) 882-3110 ======================================================================------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
