Hi!

as I wrote in my mail:
1.
I won't name them ".inc" but ".inc.php" (so *I* know, it's an include file)
2.
I don't even want them to be executable!!!

and therefore my question was, if this (on top of every include-file) would
be safe enough:
>> if (substr($SCRIPT_URL,-8)==".inc.php") exit;
$PHP_SELF better than $SCRIPT_URL in line above???

thanks
michi
