Hey,

I modified my .htaccess so that it has styling from a header and footer HTM docs. Only problem is, the .htaccess does not effect all the subdirectories. For example, in my situation, i have a series of downloads folders that may have subs created in them by people other than me. So my problem is i want the styling to automatically be generated on those folders without me having to go back and copy a header.htm, footer.htm and .htaccess.

My code is as follows:

# -FrontPage-

IndexIgnore .htaccess */.??* *~ *# */HEADER* */README* */_vti*

<Limit GET POST>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from all
</Limit>
<Limit PUT DELETE>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Limit>
AuthName www.foothillsbaptist.org
AuthUserFile /home/footh4/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.pwd
AuthGroupFile /home/footh4/public_html/_vti_pvt/service.grp
Options +Indexes
   IndexOptions FancyIndexing SuppressDescription SuppressHTMLPreamble FoldersFirst
   HeaderName header.htm
   ReadmeName footer.htm
   IndexIgnore header.htm footer.htm .htaccess direclogo.gif
suPHP_ConfigPath /home/footh4/public_html

Thanks for your help.

Do the sub dirs have htaccess files in them? If so they will override your top level htaccess.

Thats the only reason I can think of why its not working at a sub level. htaccess by default cascades through all sub dirs unless one of those has a htaccess file in it which overides the parent.
