If you want to see a list of files in a directory when viewing it in a browser rather than a web page then you can enable directory indexing. To do this you would need to create a file called .htaccess in the directory or edit your existing .htaccess file. This line needs to be added:

You will also need to ensure that the permissions of the directory are set to 755.
