About the cdml_format_files folder

Use this folder to protect your CDML format files for FileMaker Pro Custom Web Publishing.

When you store your CDML format files in this folder, the FileMaker Pro Web Companion will process these format files as part of CGI requests, but their contents cannot be viewed directly by HTTP requests.

The cdml_format_files folder can only be used to secure your CDML format files. It cannot be used to hide images or static html files.

For more information about using the cdml_format_files folder as part of a comprehensive approach to Web security, see the Web Security.pdf document (FileMaker Pro folder > Web Security > Web Security.pdf).
