That just indicates that directory listings are turned off on the server
(a common security feature), Domain Wizardry should be able to quickly
and easily turn that on.

> The default activity of most web servers is to
allow http directory
viewing. You do this by using a URL naming the path to the directory.
For instance, if you have a directory named "20060201-pictures" on a
served volume named www.mypix.net, you'd get to it with the URL
http://www.mypix.net/20060201-pictures/
presuming that the directory was set up such that it didn't need
password authentication. By default, most webserver are also
configured to load a file named 'index.htm' or 'index.html' if a
directory path like the above is supplied. So if one of these files
is present in the directory, it will display whatever you've got in
that file rather than the directory listing.
Some web servers explicitly turn off http directory listing, like
mac.com. If you want to have access to such directories from a
browser, you're out of luck unless you create an index.htm[l] file
with a listing of directory contents as URLs to click on. The only
other way in is to use FTP or other remote access tools to manipulate
the file system, presuming that the webserved volume has those
services turned on.

Hi All.
I have a sub folder called Paw, on my www dot caughtinmotion dot
com site. These photos
are not on
a web page with index,but just a collection in the folder. Is there
any way i can see the
files from a
browser if i want to remember what i called a photo. I seem to
remember sometimes a page
is url'd and
you get a white" parent page" and individual links to photos.
Any way this can be done or is this for photos set up in web page
form like BBpro or Adobe
web
Gallery.
If i want to remember a photo so i can send a link, from work, i
cannot do it as i dont
have an FTP here
to look into the site.
