Description of my issue:
First of all- thanks for some great tools. One of my sites was hacked a few months ago and thats when I started looking for a meaningful security solution. Admintools is a lot more than that and helped me clean up my server and the affected joomla site.
Anyway- am tweaking performance now and have gotten very decent results. The last component being expires headers that I have on my list. Nicholas was also involved with a Joomla article last year- http://magazine.joomla.org/issues/Issue-June-2012/item/787-htaccess-File-That-FREAKIN-Works
which had an example for that, but inputting the expires headers code in the .htaccess maker gave a 500 error on my page. I tried something more simple which however does not seem to get recognized by yslow (it does recognize the Etag tag).
I was wondering if there is some code that you could recommend and help me get over the finish line with my tweaking.
Much obliged and thanks in advance.
