I use .htaccess files to allow users access to files in certain directories based on their IP addresses/ranges. They are linked to these file from a page (not within the htaccess protected directory) generated in PHP. Is there a way to display a variable on this PHP page based on whether or not the user will be allowed access into .htaccess protected directories? [more inside]

This works fine. I'd also like to return the bad URL that originates the 404. Is this possible using PHP? [more inside]
