What (if any) trouble will I run into using “@” as the name of a public directory on my web server?
Example: http://domain.com/@/index.php
Would rewriting it with htaccess be safer? Issues?
Example: http://domain.com/at/index.php -> http://domain.com/@/index.php
@is a reserved character (gen-delims) under RFC 3986 section 2.2 and might have to be encoded.If I were you I’d tell your marketing department no.
