Hi Jonathan,

Thanks! But I guess I wasn't very clear. I do know where the .htaccess file
is! (And I have my FTP application configured to always show it on the
server, because I edit it often.)

It's the error in the .htaccess file that I can't find...that's why I was
wondering if there's such a thing as an .htacess validator.

best,
D.
