Not exactly; 777 includes write permission which you don't need to read files and might not want. You need read permission to enter the directory and execute/search permission to list files in it (if you have read but not execute, then you can't list files, but you can still read them if you know their name and have read permission on the file).

You need to set 777 on their host directory too surely.
