Controling display in an <iframe>

I've made a very simple page which works on a local network, containing a frame to show the contents of a directory on a local server.

The code is as follows:

<iframe src=&quot;\\server\directory\subdirectory&quot;width=&quot;350&quot; height=&quot;380&quot; >

This works OK.

My question is this - are there any HTML codes to control the way the contents of the directory/frame are displayed? On my machine, the icons are arranged OK, I get a nice window full of them (win2k). On some of our machines, the icons are displayed in a long vertical column, which is a pain.

What I need is to be able to control this - the same way as in explorer I can click 'view' and have the choice of list, details, thumbnails etc. I would ideally like to set the view to just a file list, rather than Icons.

If it's not clear, let me know. Thanks
