Not sure how to explain but I'll try my best.
I've got a directory called images which contains various jpg images. These images are not displayed on the
website hosting. Instead a php script uses these images when it creates a pdf to download.
If a user knows the folder name and the name of the image they can type in (for example)
www.website.co.uk/images/pic1.jpg and it will display on their screen. I don't want this. I've switched of indexing so at least they can't do ...co.uk/images to get a list but I'm still stuck with the problem of them knowing/guessing the name of a jpg file.
How can this be resolved easily? I'm not used to Linux server but I think I can put the images outside of the public_html folder but I'm not sure exactly where it should go instead. Also, how does my php script then call up these images if they are in a protected place?
Say my php calls an image using...
$pdf -> addJPG("images/pic1.jpg");
What pathname do I have to use instead? Or is there an easier way?
As usual - any help gratefully received!
