.htaccess files are configuration files of Apache Server which provide a way to make configuration changes on a per-directory basis. A file, containing one or more configuration directives, is placed in a particular document directory, and the directives apply to that directory, and all subdirectories thereof.

What is htaccess?

Using this ".htaccess" file, we can control "php.ini" and "httpd.conf" file.

For php.ini:

for register globals, Enter "php_flag register_globals on" in that file and place it inside the context folder where you are running the php files. Now this is set to globals throughout the files present inside that context folder. This is boolean, so we are giving like "php_flag". if it is the value, we have to give like "php_value"

For example : [php_value sendmail_from "dineshsdk85@gmail.com"], we have to give like this for the values.
