When you upload a file to the Files section, it send by default an e-mail to
the group members with a link to the file
When you click on the link, you're sent to a login page, and after login in

Not true. .htaccess turns a "public" directory into a "private"
directory. Even if you know the path and filename you want, without an
accepted username/password, you're not getting the file.

They might not be obvious, ie. you would have to guess that there are
files in a specific folder AND know the exact name of the file, but if
you do happen to guess correct, then the files are downloadable.
There are
Place a .htaccess in the files directory denying all access to it, and also
possibly redirecting them to a login page. However since your users should
never know about the files/ directory there is no real point :)
Then code a PHP script to serve the files just in the same way you would if

If the script is readable by the web server (which it must be in order
to be parsed) and the web server only runs as one user (which it usually
does) then your scripts will be readable by other users on the same
server and anyone with command line or telnet/ssh access will have at
least read-only s
I wonder though, if they're on a the same server but different sites. Like a
shared host environment. Aw the things the bewilder the mind.

That is called Cross-Site Scripting (XSS).
I have not been able to get access to the variables via an XSS exploit.
It appears that Apache renders the php code before sending off the
requesting include function.
I also like the .htaccess way of preventing user access to the scripts.
This is also wo
Just something that crossed my mind a few times. What if another website
includes this file in their own php page. That site can't access those
variables can they? (I'm sure PHP wouldn't allow that but I need to put this
curiousity to rest)

My preference
1. if possible, store the files above your public_html directory (doc
root)... this means they cannot be over http:// by apache, if that isn't
possible:
2. use .htaccess to either block the entire directory of includes, or all
*.inc files, or whatever you think is best. Personally,
Try putting your files config files in a directory outside of the root
web directory and access the files via the include_path directive in the
php.ini file.
If you dont have access you can add create a .htaccess file or set the
configuration in a php script that is run before your other scripts.

If you want to hide the content of an .inc or other file that contains PHP
code simply rename it with a .php
ie: config.inc becomes config.inc.php
the server will parse the file as PHP now and not allow users to download
it...
Alternatively you can protect a directory with a .htaccess file if yo

You can use an absolute or relative path, just like any other reference.
