With an .htaccess file, you will determine how the web server that deals with the requests to your Internet sites have to act in a variety of occasions. This is a text file with directives that are carried out when somebody tries to open your Internet site and what happens next is determined by the content of the file. For instance, you can block a specific IP address from accessing the site, which means that the server will decline the visitor’s request, or you can forward your domain to a different URL, so the server may direct the visitor to the new web address. Also you can use customized error pages or preserve any part of your Internet site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file in the correct folder. Many well-known script-driven apps, like Joomla™, WordPress and Drupal™, use an .htaccess file to operate efficiently.
