Where I am going wrong please? I have a new folder on my website which contains just some photos. When I try to access it I am told I do not have permission to do this. Is it not possible to open a folder on a website which just contains pictures or just text files. That is, does not have an index file?
Your webhost is confgured to disallow directory browsing. This is common.If you have access to the config files (and root on the server) then you can enable it.
If not, then you may be able to do it via a .htaccess file. Try this Options Indexes in a file called .htaccess (note leading dot) in the same directory. This still may not work if the host doesn't allow you to override the configuration though (but should do).
