title: how to hide files in the www directory
body: <p>Is it possible to hide a folder from the www directory so that the php files will not be seen if you access it through a web browser?
  I'm doing this because I'm not yet good enough to secure those files and the mysql database that they are manipulating. 
  Or even a trick that would make the web browser not to be able to access the localhost is fine. Please</p>
