With an .htaccess file, you can determine how the server which deals with the requests to your web sites have to act in different cases. This is a text file with directives that are performed when an individual tries to open your Internet site and what happens next depends on the content of the file. For instance, you may block a certain IP address from accessing your website, and the server will decline your visitor’s request, or you can forward your domain name to a different URL, so the server may direct the visitor to the new web address. Also you can use custom-made error pages or secure any part of your Internet site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file in the correct folder. Many widespread script-driven applications, including Joomla™, WordPress and Drupal™, use an .htaccess file to operate properly.
