title: Placing .htaccess in a folder - does it apply site-wide or just to that folder?
body: <p>I could not find a clear answer to my question.</p>
  
  <p>In my public_html folder I have a subfolder called my_subfolder.</p>
  
  <p>In my_subfolder I put a .htaccess file that contains this rule:</p>
  
  <pre><code>AddType application/x-httpd-php .html
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Does the rule apply only to files in my_subfolder, or site-wide?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
