Yeah, PHP can do that. Toss this in a web directory and pull it up ina browser.
<?php
$files = array();
$d = dir( './' );
while( false !== ( $entry = $d->read() ) ){ if( $entry != '.' && $entry != '..' && !is_dir( $entry ) ) { $files[] = $entry; }}
sort( $files );
foreach( $files as $file ){
echo <<<EOF<a href="$file">$file</a><br />EOF;
}
?>
