I have a website that is working properly.I dont know when I do "Domain-name.com/images" It shows me all the images in the images folder present at my site.I dont know why is this.may be this is due to the Directory permissions?But I want to ask know the actual reason behind it Help will be appreciated. Note:I am tagging Php and Html because these people might faced this thing while creating website.
