I need to place a number of files, word docs, jpg images and others on a web site that is accessible for the public to download. I could add links (Aref) to the html page, but this will need modifying each time a new file is uploaded. Is there some code I could use to just read and display a full list of files within a folder on the web site server, where each file is clickable to download (rather like ftp but from the html page)

Don't know what hosting service you have, but if you have a good control panel, the Public FTP folder can be used for this. Might put all files in zip format to keep from triggering the browser from calling a known program to open it.

Might be of help...
