I'm pretty new to the webhosting deal and was learning about the features of my account today. I was trying out the hotlinking prevention using .htaccess and could block referrals that came from an actual .html page. But the problem is with eBay -- it looks like the auction pages dynamically generate through a server side app (understandable). I've tried to allow an image based on the URL in the address bar, e.g.:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=99999999
but that doesn't work. The best I can do is to block/allow from the entire cgi.ebay.com server. Is there a way to block/allow hotlinking for a specific auction? If so, what should I put in the .htaccess file so I can hotlink my auctions while blocking other people's auctions?
<-- webhosting nooooooooooob.
