Well, usually most users put the files online as it comes from cakephp website, just unzip the files and when upload to server, uploads all file to the "public_html" folder, and this folder will have the .htaccess that redirects every request to app/webroot, BUT if you create another folder in public_html (where the app and lib folders are) and put a .htaccess with RewriteEngine OFF, this folder will not be redirect to app/webroot and the server will deliver to the client this folder´s content. SO you have the public_html folder AND webroot´s folder...
For example you have /public_html/app/webroot If you create for example /public_html/docs and put a .htaccess with RewriteEngine OFF here, when you type www.yoursite.com.br/docs this folder will be accessible OR if you create /public_html/app/webroot/docs will be accessible also at www.yoursite.com.br/docs BUT, the most correct way to upload the files to the server, is to upload the app and lib folder to a not public folder, but you will upload the app/webroot contents to the public_html folder, and change the index.php settings of webroot´s folder, in this case the webroot NOW IS the public_html folder, and you just need to put the html files anywhere in your public folder, dont need any .htaccess to stop the RewriteEngine... In this case, you should create /public_html/docs and dont need to put any .htacccess here, jut access throught www.yoursite.com.br/docs Let me understand, you dont want to insert into your public folder because you want the people have no access to the docs??
