How would I create a program that can see behind the index.html file in a web page directory and see the files in the directory.
A list of them will do
But I have no idea where to start
Thanks

This will only work if the web server has directory browsing enabled.

Yes I can guess that thanks but how do I write the program?

Will your program be running client or server side? If you are running server side, then either VB or a CGI/ASP script will do. Otherwise you will have to goto the directory by specifying the url, and hope that the user hasn't put up a default page so that you get the index listing. You can parse that page for the dirs etc if you can get it.

All I want to do is view files in a directory on the web. Like an FTP view.
Is there no simple way to do it.
I've heard that there is a program that can but I can't find it so I thought I'd write my own.
But if it's not possible I'll give up.
Thanks for you help and sugesstions everyone
