Got an easy one, how to download entire directory?

download entire directory

[aldend123]

Ok I want to give access to a large amount of files in several directorys, using the directorys as catagories, and i want to let others download them, they must go into each directory and download each individual file unless i put them all in a ZIP and have them download that.... but this is very time consuming and space consuming considering I want to keep the files outside zip's so can access them myself.

ok ya thats a confusing paragraph, here:

How can I make it so they can download the entire contents of a directory

Index of /
---------------------------
picture.jpg
somefile.txt
/somebigfolder
/fewmorethingsinafolder
---------------------------

how do I save them from having to enter the directory and download every individual file?

You could set up your FTP server to do this, but HTTP is "page" oriented, not "directory" oriented.

So, despite the title, it's not "an easy one." :(
