ctietze, 
A question for more experienced #PHP developers than me:
We have this setup where all requests go through a PHP script for authorization (think: cookie) checking before serving files.
That's fine with HTML, but less ideal for 5MB PDFs.
I'm trying to search for ways to use PHP to allow/deny access, but otherwise let the web server (Apache) do its job.
Is there such a facility to rewrite requests for auth, but then go on serve the static files?
