Hi All,
I have written a little web application with Ruby; I have put HTML files

(included index.html)  at /www/htdocs/home and all ruby scipts at
/www/cgi-bin. I have renamed *.rb in *.cgi .
Everthing works fine, but now I want that users get an error when they
try to call something like this:
- http://my_server/home/any_page.html  (<> index.html);
or like this:
- http://my_server/cgi-bin/any_ruby_script.cgi --

Briefly, Iwant that HTML pages and scripts are called and executed only
by other
pages and other scripts, and not directly by the user when s/he writes
their
location on the server.

Thank you.
