Hi,
I created a module named "admin".
I’m having hard time to create layouts to “admin” module because of the .htaccess file in /protected directory.
I have some css and js files in:
/protected/modules/admin/views/layouts/main/css/
/protected/modules/admin/views/layouts/main/jscript/
But the .htaccess is preventing me te to call and include those files.
The error I get from the browser:
“403 - forbidden - You don’t have permission to access /protected/modules/admin/views/layouts/css/styles.css”.
What should I do? I cant delete the .htaccess file because it’s important…
Thanks.

The solution, of course, is to not put it there in the first place. 
Put css in the ‘css’ directory at the app root directory.
Or put it in a theme directory.
The js files you can put in a separate directory in either root directory or in a directory in your theme directory.
Alternatively, you can use the clientscript component to publish css and js.
Most widgets/extensions go that route.
Personally, I prefer to handle css and js manually, and I use my theme directory for that: a css and a js directory in the theme dir.

There is a situation when you have only build a module that contains all the css, layouts etc.
And for some reason you don’t want to mess with the main theme folder.
There should be a way to read from your module.
