How can I show what files are in a folder? The .htaccess doesn't seem to work?

[Big-Mac-Please]

Hello

I am trying to use part of my website so people can see the files. On my other webhosting the files are all simply displayed when I go to a directory without a index file but on the 1and1 hosting this is not the case.

Can somone help with this? I've tried making a .htaccess file but my mac just hides the files!

Anyhelp with this would be great!

Thanx
BigMac

Ok I've got it working but the issue I have is if I password protect the folder then even when I put the password in I can;t see the files.

Is it possible to password protect the folder and still see the files?

Is there any software for this sort of thing?

Thanx!

Not sure if we are on the same wavelength here but if you have something like

options -indexes

in your .htaccess file then it won't display a directory listing. Try removing that line and see what happens
