hi Ashar,
thanks for your reply. i don't think i quite understand how to separate out /w/ and /wiki/. at the moment i have mediawiki installed at /wiki/ right out of the box. the rewrite rules are in /wiki/.htaccess, and LocalSettings.php are appropriately tweaked. ($wqArticlePath=/wiki/$1;) i still haven't figured out how to put the scripts and the images somewhere else not accessible directly.
thanks for your help.
