Hi Guys,
I have a folder (not the root) and want to restrict the directory listing. Can I do it in an htaccess file and if so, how?
Many thanks,

to create a .htaccess file simply open notepad - enter your chosen codes then save it as htaccess.txt
Then upload it to your web server and rename it to .htaccess
At this point it will turn into a hidden file and you will probably not be able to see it using your ftp client
Hope this helps,
Rob

Cheers Rob,
I did do that originally but did not know that I had to rename it to .htaccess
