Assume that for a webpage, I can see the index of a certain folder.

So in example.com/folders/

Index of /folders

files/
js/
css/

...and so on and so forth. Is there any way to download an entire folder from my browser when viewing the "Index of" page?

Depends on what is your browser ( and how tight is your definition of "browser" )and how that site is set up ..protected .etc

eg ..blackwidow is just one of many "browserish" apps that can let one "semi-browse" and rip ..there are many more ways of doing this ..some apps resemble "browser" more than others ..

IMO the best of the rippers is an OS freeware app

One might consider an ftp client ( et al ) to be a member of the "browser" ..family ..even putty might be considered to be a browser ..( stretching it I know ..but :)

Also depends on is it your site or someone elses ..

Some ways are way more simple than others ..

Curious question ..care to elaborate as to the why(s)..( under what circumstances ) ?
