Just drop a .htm and .html files in your htdocs folder and go to your abyss console , go to server paremeters and click on add in the index table , type index.htm and click on submit and restart your server click on add again in the index table and type , index.html and go to your web address and your index.htm or index.html should be found if you want to put a index file in a sub directory, just drop a index.htm or index.html and point your browser to that web directory http://www.offspringvideos.com/images/

inside /images/ is a index.html file and that blocks the forbidden error from coming up it just shows that html index file instead , its a great way to add your own forbidden error pages 8)

I HOPE THIS IS WHAT YOUR TALKING ABOUT ! 8)

are you sure that it is really a html file? you should turn on file extensions (My Computer > Tools > Folder Options > Views tab > Uncheck Hide Extensions for known files types) It is possible if you made a new text file and saved it as a html file that it still has a txt exension on the end index.html.txt wont work in your server.
