Hey when I open my website with full path to my css file can see it.

Code:

http://www.mydomain.com/css/style.css

In browser are shown my css file. How to hide this file?

In the folder with the css files do file ndex.php with the following content:

PHP Code:


			
<?php session_start(); $_SESSION['csskey'] = "hello"; ?> <html> <head> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="style.css" /> </head> <body> Hello World </body> </html>

Then make a style.php file with this content:

PHP Code:


			
<?php session_start(); header("Content-type: text/css"); if ($_SESSION["csskey"] != "hello") { die("Protected"); } $_SESSION["csskey"] = "somethingelse"; ?> body { background-color: #000; color: #fff; }

Finally make a .htaccess file:

Code:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule style.css style.php

Is it possible to hide my css file without using of .htaccess file? So much .htaccess file I will be confused.

In the page where are includes a CSS file, write this on top:

PHP Code:


			
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['samplekey'] = "authorization";
?>

Then rename the CSS file from .css to .php and edit this file. Add these lines in the top:

PHP Code:


			
<?php
session_start();
if ($_SESSION["samplekey"] != "authorization")
{
die("restricted file");
}
$_SESSION["samplekey"] = "noauthorization";
?>

Next in index.php file you should use include thus:

PHP Code:


			
<style type="text/css">
@import "style.php";
</style>

Unfortunately, both of these techniques don't hide the CSS files from appearing or to be traced down, e.g. using the FireBug firefox addon.

In another place,
Hide your CSS Source - PHP Code Snippet

I think this perhaps works effective, I tested it partially, due to my lack of php_myadmin.

It requires to create a mysql table, like this

table -> style

But I don't know how to create this MySql table and what is `style', is it a table in the 'table' database?

what are the arguments to be filled? I'm using the XAMPP for php/mysql.

Thank you
