    don think you can do that, but you prevent access to any .php file using simple deny rules in htaccess

    Are you trying to disable php exec(), or are you trying to disable php from running on a directory?

    exec() can be disabled directly in httpd.conf, or in .htaccess. Php can be disabled using htaccess in the specific directory as wmtips suggested.

    Try chmod 666 or 776 for any of those folders. Test to make sure it works, but this should remove the ability to execute from all the files in that directory.
