-<P>The &lt;Location&gt; directive provides for access control by
-URL. It is comparable to the <A
-HREF="mod/core.html#directory">&lt;Directory&gt;</A> directive, and
-should be matched with a &lt;/Location&gt; directive. Directives that
-apply to the URL given should be listen
-within. <CODE>&lt;Location&gt;</CODE> sections are processed in the
-order they appear in the configuration file, after the
-&lt;Directory&gt; sections and <CODE>.htaccess</CODE> files are
-read.</P>
-
-<P>Note that, due to the way HTTP functions, <EM>URL prefix</EM>
-should, save for proxy requests, be of the form <CODE>/path/</CODE>,
-and should not include the <CODE>http://servername</CODE>. It doesn't
-necessarily have to protect a directory (it can be an individual
-file, or a number of files), and can include wild-cards. In a wild-card
-string, `?' matches any single character, and `*' matches any
-sequences of characters.
-
-<P>This functionality is especially useful when combined with the
-<CODE><A HREF="mod/mod_mime.html#sethandler">SetHandler</A></CODE>
-directive. For example, to enable status requests, but allow them only
-from browsers at foo.com, you might use:
-
-<PRE>
- &lt;Location /status&gt;
- SetHandler server-status
- order deny,allow
- deny from all
- allow from .foo.com
- &lt;/Location&gt;
-</PRE>
