Deny access to a directory

[spike]

I have a directory on my host that i want to protect.

Users should not be able to access the files in the directory
by typing the url in the adress bar, but i should be able to
access them in my php-script.

I tried to use a .htaccess file but could not get it to work.
I also tried to place the directory above the WWW root, but there i
could not access them.

Any tips?

Thank you

Please be more verbose. What did you try? What were the errors you got?

This is the best solution IMHO, so again: please tell us what you tried
and where you failed...
