Displaying Directory Contents In A CS Webpage

Some CS users want to display the contents of a directory (located under their public_html directory), however, CS has directory indexes disabled sitewide (to prevent people from inadvertently disclosing files by accident).

But, you can still display the contents of the directory using one of two methods:

Method 1: Using an index.html File

You can create an index.html file that contains links to the contents of the directory.

Method 2: Using a .htaccess File

You can add a .htaccess (don't forget the . ) file to the directory with the following contents:

    Options +Indexes

The settings in a .htaccess file apply to the directory it is in and to any of its subdirectories (recursively).
