I thought it might be something like that. So I asked them -- and they
refused, even after I explained that lack of this was displaying my source
code to the world. Unfortunately, I didn't choose this host, the client did,
so I can't easily do the obvious thing -- tell them to take a flying leap! I
hoped I might be able to use a .htaccess file to achieve the same ends, but
I think they must have disabled using .htaccess for this purpose as I can't
get it to work -- although it does work for user authorization, with a
.htpassword file.
Their suggested solution? Create an index.html file in each directory, with
a meta-refresh of zero, redirecting to the real index file! Great ...
