Is it possible to access HTTP protocol folders as Java objects

Is it possible to retrieve the folders in an http server as java.io.File objects?

For instance, Consider the http site http://java.sun.com/, The http url of a file on this server is http://java.sun.com/new2java/educators/index.jsp. Is it possible to rerieve the folders new2java and educators as java.io.File objects?

Any tips on this is very much appreciated.

No. 1) File is for local (and Windows share) files only. 2) In URLs there is no notion of "folders". What you see as a folder may not even exist physically; web containers (like Apache HTTPD or Tomcat) allow you to map any URL to any file.

And I really urge you to read your private messages and follow the instructions therein. This is your last warning.
