Re: CakePHP configuration or .htaccess?

A solution was found! (Thanks Martin)

By moving the cake core (cake/) and the application files (appname/)
to my home directory ~user/ and only have the files from appname/
webroot in ~user/public_html/ I got what I wanted.

But to make it work with the new file locations, I had to update
index.php (now located in ~user/public_html/) since that file defines
ROOT, APP_DIR and CAKE_CORE_INCLUDE_PATH. Finally I had to revert back
to the original .htaccess files.

A positive side effect - besides solving my link issue - the site
security has been improved since the cake core and the application
files now are located in a place where they are not exposed as they
would be in the directory ~user/public_html

Again, thanks Martin.
