vb.org Archive - View Single Post - Using REFERER in Avatar 2.0 PIC.PHP so people can't Leech

#4 01-20-2001, 06:18 AM

I use the following .htaccess in all of my image directories so that one can hotlink my images. I'm not sure if it works on all servers, but it always works on mine (Apache/Linux). Do not serve html files from a directory with this .htaccess in it because any referrals from a URL other than yours (search engine, etc) will be blocked. Just use it in your image directories:

-----

RewriteEngine On

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^http://([a-z0-9-]+\.)*yourdomain.com/ [NC]

RewriteRule /* http://%{HTTP_HOST}/ [R,L]
