I cant open the .htaccess template file downloaded with the software. My chmod settings seem to have to be 777 in order for everything to work.

could someone advise me what software I need to create my own .htaccess files and which directories I need to put them in. many thanks.

OK, so Ive worked out that .htaccess is just a .txt file with the txt removed.

this is the template that I found elsewhere in the download pack:

-- start
<Files .htaccess>
order allow,deny
deny from all
</Files>

IndexIgnore */*
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www.)?domain.com/.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .(gif|jpg|txt|xml|png)$ - [F]
-- end

My question is twofold:

(1) if my domain name is abc.co.uk, is the format of the rewriteCond line like this:

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://(www.)?abc.co.uk/.*$ [NC]

(2) which folders should I place copies of .htaccess in?

Many thanks
