Hi. I am new to all of this and have been searching in vain. I
understand that to protect files such as .pdf files from people just
making a direct link to place these outside the web root. This would
allow those authorized to the webpages and that are logged in could.
I am so confused with getting there however. I subscribe to a web
host. there is a www folder so if i make a file above this, place the
pdfs for download here. from there i am confused. do i add the
various scripts im finding to the actual page that has the link or does
the link link to the page with the sole script that causes the file to
open?
If anyone could shed some light on this or point me in the right
direction i'd be very appreciative.
Regards,
Ryan
