Yes, we can restrict files on intranet from outer world.

I am giving you live example here:

when you are working with a multi-environment setup that is synced via a version control system such as Git or Subversion, you need a way to keep your development environments locked down while allowing access to your public environment.

Below is some text that you will input into a .htaccess file placed in your webroot

#allows a single uri through the .htaccess password protection
SetEnvIf Request_URI "/testing_uri$" test_uri

#allows everything if its on a certain host
SetEnvIf HOST "^testing.yoursite.com" testing_url
SetEnvIf HOST "^yoursite.com" live_url
Order Deny,Allow

AuthName "Restricted Area"
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /path/to/your/.htpasswd
AuthGroupFile /
Require valid-user

#Allow valid-user
Deny from all
Allow from env=test_uri
Allow from env=testing_url
Allow from env=live_url
Satisfy any

so in the above code the "testing_uri" part could be if i only wanted to allow this url through my htaccess protections (useful for paypal pings) ex "http://mysite.com/paypal/ipn"

The host part is to allow anyone through if they are requesting the code from a specific domain such as "testing.yoursite.com". If it is "development.yoursite.com" it will not allow the user through.

Is there a way to block .php from being indexed by crawlers, but allow other type files to be indexed? When the crawlers access the php files, they are executed, creating lots of error messages (and taking up cpu cycles).

I'm writing my first php extension and I need to list included files (in PHP script) from RINIT function, but I cannot figure out how.

I deep into PHP source code and I think it's related to EG(included_files), but I can't to access the list.

PHP_RINIT_FUNCTION(extname)
{
 // SAPI NAME AND PHP SCRIPT FILE HANDLE PATH
 char *pt_var_sapi_name = sapi_module.name;
 char *pt_var_file_handle_path = SG(request_info).path_translated;

 // HOW CAN I USE EG(included_files) to get included files list?

 return SUCCESS;

The output is in this form

Array (
     [0] => name
     [1] => email
     [2] => contact
     [3] => address 
    ) 
Array (
     [0] => sant
     [1] => sant@gmail.com
     [2] => **********
     [3] => haryana ) 

But I want the output in this form

  Array[1] (
     [0] => name
     [1] => email
     [2] => contact
     [3] => address 
    ) 
Array[2] (
     [0] => sant
     [1] => sant@gmail.com
     [2] => **********
     [3] => haryana
    ) 
...
