Thankyou for responding William,..

But I can't say I understand what you mean... is it a nice way of saying 'NO'
it can't be done?

Well I did state that the browser can't read the directory..

Okay,... How does one 'spider the site to get the filenames without having to
download the entire site and get unwanted files or file types.

curious?

... in short the link you gave,... shows how to use other programs to generate
a list automatically and have it saved to txt file... which in turn, could be
used in WinHTTrack using the 'URL list' option.... is this correct?
if you could confirm if this is what you meant with your reply,.. that would
be great.

many thanks once again
