With an .htaccess file, you can specify how the server that handles the requests to your Internet sites have to act in different situations. This is a text file with directives that are performed when someone tries to open your Internet site and what happens next is determined by the content of the file. For example, you could block a specific IP address from accessing the website, so the server will decline your visitor’s request, or you can redirect your domain to a different URL, so the server will direct the visitor to the new web address. You could also use personalized error pages or shield any part of your site with a password, if you place an .htaccess file in the correct folder. Many well-known script-driven apps, like Drupal™, Joomla™ and WordPress, use an .htaccess file to function correctly.
