Does anyone know the htaccess code to stop users listing folders and files in directories on the server?

You don't need to use htaccesss for that. If you can't access your server config files, just make sure that every directory has an index.html file.

No, there's a way to do it with a line of code. I've seen it once before, but can't remember it.

At the moment I've got index files in every folder - what a waste of bytes!

I know there's a way. Maybe a Google search will bring it up.

EDIT - found it! Try this:

Hi,
Hope you guys can help me. I'm a complete website design novice - My first site I created in iweb (please don't sneer)

I recently designed a site in Dreamweaver CS3, it runs fine on my mac. No broken links or browser issues and I set index.html as homepage.

I could get dreamweaver to connect to my server for FTP, so I used Cyberduck.
Uploaded fine but I get a page Index of/ then a list of my folders.
Thought it might be file permissions so changed them, no joy.
Any idea?

Thanks,
Nikki
