You web host or server admin must set this.

Hi Thomas - when I right click on the folder (within FrontPage) and go to
Properties I am not given the option to select / deselect "Allow Files to be
Browsed" - that option doesn't even exist! I have boxes which say "Allow
scripts or programs to be run" (greyed out), "Allow anonymous upload to this
directory" (greyed out) and "Allow uploaded files to overwrite existing
filenames" (also greyed out). Thanks for your help and patience! Nicky

You can only display the content of a folder directly if the folder is set to allow the content

be browsed. If you can't change the permissions then you will not able to do this without use a
server-side script, such as ASP or ASP.net.
If the site is hosted on Windows IIS with ASP/FileSystemObject enabled, then you can use the
following:
ASP.net version:

Classic ASP version:

I have tried both ways suggested, the page that is displayed states "You are
not authorises to view this page". I am not allowed to change server settings
as this has very strict security settings due to being on a Naval base. I
have no idea why some people have frame problems, the people who do have
problems have to dial in to the intranet from external locations? Any other
ideas? Thanks for you answers.

1. Simply link to the folder.
2. Make sure the server is set to allow folder browsing.
3. Make sure the folder "does not" contain an index.htm file. ( or any "default" html
document )

Hi, I am currently looking after an intranet and need to link to a folder
full of word files so the user can then click and open any of these files. I
can do this using frames or inline frames but not all my users browsers
support frames so have to change all these pages. Except I can't find a way
round it! Someone in another forum suggested linking the folder as included
content but I can only link htm files - not folders!
Please help! If there is no way round it I guess I will have to type all the
files in and link them individually but I was hoping to not have to resort to
this as the files are updated daily. Thank you!
