Hi Neil,
I'm not sure you can.
The server may be configured to serve a page representing the
filesystem in the background, but I don't think there is a native HTTP
to allow you to obtain a list, otherwise it would be a lot easier for
crackers to attack sites knowing the type of file structure behind the
scenes.
Scott :)
