Hi,
I need to create the .htaccess file for my site but I was wondering since my site does not run from the base directory on my server space and from a folder one depth in do I still put .htaccess in the base directory or in the folder that contains the index file?
Thanks
where does .htaccess go?

Ok thanks, that clears that up. I'm struggling to create the file itself too.
Because I'm working on a windows platform ftp'ing to the server my files are on, windows just displays a message saying you must enter a filename (because there's nothing before the dot). Do I need to use some different software to do this?
