Has anyone had a similar problem to this?
Testing a site (using frames) to see if compatible with IE and Netscape. Works fine in IE but in Netscape gives error message:

Directory Listing Denied
This Virtual Directory does not allow contents to be listed.

It is not finding the file whereas in IE there is no problem.

Get used to it.

Netscape is much more unforgiving about errors. To fix it http://validator.w3.org or http://www.websitegarage.com (spelling?)

We had a similar problem on a Microsoft NT/FrontPage server...

Netscape often stumbles on spaces in URL/file names (which are technically not allowed) while IE will accept them (especially if the servers is Microsoft as well.

When you doesnt close some tags in the HTML page you cannot see the page in netscape. Its better you check your HTML code properly and see whether you have closed all the tags.
