 |
|
Hi one webserver that I frequently use uses the download method of having the files linked to as www.foo.com/some.php/someotherfile.zip is there anyway I can find/extract a direct link to the someotherfile.zip?
PS No I don't intended to use this for hotlinking. |

It may not be possible if they store the files in a directory outside public_html (or whatever it's called).

@gen2fox
The files are availibale to the public so dosn't that mean that they are inside the public_html? |

No. apache can only reach files in a defined document-root-dir, whereever PHP is able to reach files from the whole filesystem.
They probably use kind of URL-rewriting from www.foo.com/some.php/someotherfile.zip to www.foo.com/some.php?parameter=someotherfile.zip and PHP can lookup this file in /downloads/someotherfile.zip for example.

No need for a rewrite rule by the way, requesting foo.php/bar does call foo.php, in this case "bar" can be accessed via $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'].
