Rescue Me Please: 403 access denied on my css & js files, possibly due to limited knowledge of .htaccess - El Forum - 12-09-2013

Hi Guys, please help me. I have developed a website in CI, which works nicely on my local machine, but as soon as I push it to production, I experience problems with a 403 access denied error on my css & js files.
I have googled and most results point me to the .htaccess file, I have tried editing the application/.htaccess , but I am not winning as most of the .htaccess examples do not seem to work in my application.
My js & css files are under : http://example.com/application/default/views/default/lib/
- css = http://example.com/application/default/views/default/lib/css/
- js = http://example.com/application/default/views/default/lib/js/
God Bless

Ooh well. Due to my limited knowledge, I was editing an incorrect .htaccess file. Stupidity is part of humanity.

You should not put any public files under application directory. Its protected with htaccess and index.html files for a reason
