I understand that free accounts have mod_security enabled and that I cannot turn it off manually through the .htaccess file. I am developing a small application that needs to POST decent amounts of text based data to the MySQL database. Some of these posts contain links and information that are being blocked by mod_security. My web application is a closed app and cannot be access by anyone that does not have credentials (i am the only one right now). I know turning off mod_security for accounts is a case by case basis, but I am requesting to have it turned off for my account as I am getting 406 Errors while trying to post data. Thanks x10hosting

On free hosting we would not be able to completely turn it off, but affecting rules can be tweaked if there's a good reason for it.

@Dead-i think this might be one for you to check into.

My application is a basic changelog system. Im developing it for use at my workplace. The POSTs to the database may contain text content that has html code and links in it. If its possible, from what Ive read online, I would need to have SecFilterEngine Off and SecFilterScanPOST Off for my POSTs to go through

In mod_security2, you cannot change or disable mod_security2 via the .htaccess file.
