I need to download a lot of files from a web directory that looks like
this:

http://www.somewebpage.com/public/folder/ . If I type this into the
address bar of a web browser, I got a blank page.

However, if I know the name of a specific file and type it in:

http://www.somewebpage.com/public/folder/image1.jpg
or
http://www.somewebpage.com/public/folder/video1.flv

...., then I could see the picture/video and download them without any
issue.

The problem is that I don't know exactly what files are in that folder
and their names. There is also no index.html file.

Is there a way or any software that can help with the situation?

Thank you for any suggestion!
 
Hi,

You will get a blank page if no content exists on that page. You need FTP not
HTTP
