如何隐藏www目录中的文件

Question

Is it possible to hide a folder from the www directory so that the php files will not be seen if you access it through a web browser? I'm doing this because I'm not yet good enough to secure those files and the mysql database that they are manipulating. Or even a trick that would make the web browser not to be able to access the localhost is fine. Please

A very simple trick if you don't have Apache, hence no access to .htaccess (that sounds like I'm repeating myself), just create a file index.htm or index.html containing NOTHING. Any attempt to access that folder will just show a blank page.
