Hi there just wondering;

How do i deny direct access to files in a specific folder. I have an upload script that uploads to /uploadedFiles and currently i just have an index.php which redirects the user to the login page however how do i stop users from accessing a file directly such as;

www.myurl.com/uploadedFiles/thisFile.jpeg

Thanks in advance :)
