How can I allow all users to see all the files in a particular directory? and if its possible to password protect that directory?

$handle=readdir($dir);
foreach($handle as $var) {
print "<a href=\"$var\">$var</a>";
}

Not quite sure if that works but give it a go

<?php
$handle = opendir("yourdirectory");

while($file = readdir($handle)) {
echo "<a href=\"$file\">$file</a><br>";
}

closedir($handle);
?>

It would be really easy to add last accessed, last modified, file size, etc. to it also.

HiHi~

put a .htaccess file to that directory

the .htaccess file must have the line below in it


Options +Indexes


If you go to the dir that you have just put the .htaccess, you should be able to see all the files!

A brief detail on how to passwd protect a dir can be found here:
