Creating a htaccess file is not exactly what I would call a fun way to spend a Sunday afternoon. You have to search the Web for the right “code” to slice in there (if you don’t know it by heart) and also you run into the problem of getting the special code wrong or pointing into the wrong spot.
htaccessEditor.com solves the problems and pains with creating your own htaccess file by giving you an easy step by step wizard to creating your own Online. The only work you have to do is select the parameters on the left and fill in the empty text boxes. Once you are done, copy and paste the code into your own htaccess file, upload it and you are done.
The tool provides code for just about every htaccess tweak, tip and service you could need. It covers error pages, access restrictions, redirects, default pages and more. There is one more service that does this sort of thing out there if htaccessEditor.com doesn’t do the job for you. The .htaccess file generator has a ‘bit of an uglier interface but it too will get the job done.
TIP: If you browse to htaccessEditor.com and see a bunch of funny text – click on the drop down box in the upper right side of the page and select “English”. That one scared me a few times.
