    Dear All,

    I have a question on Directory Browsing

    I am able to browse my site directory i.e

    mysite.tld/directory

    in my directory there are further subdirectories like dir1 and dir2 which contains and index.php file. I am unable to browse these directories via the browser is there anyway to browse a directory containing index file.

    You won't be able to see the contents of a directory if there is an index.html or .php in it. You can only browse it through FTP to see what files there are and then just add the filename to the URL if you can't remember it.

    Oh I thought you were talking about your own site and were confused about some things :). You cannot find out what files are in a directory that does not list them, there are no secret methods or programs.
