    Beat Your Website into Submission with .htaccess

    I devote most of my day to designing and coding. I don't have a lot of extra time to mess with server configuration. But my neglect of that aspect of web design has cost me countless hours of unnecessary development and a near break-down on more than one occasion. My server was bending me to its will instead of the other way around. Somewhere along the way I discovered its weakness—.htaccess. That's the little file that puts password protection on directories (that's all I knew it did). Now I'm beating my websites into submission one command at a time.
