Ignoring contents of folder not working with Tortoise SVN

Ok, I'm trying to ignore the contents of a directory but not the directory itself but I'm having trouble doing it.

Inside the directory itself when I right click and go to TortoiseSVN -> Properties I have the entry svn:ignore '*.*' - from what I have read that is the correct way to do it.

However when I add files to this directory they are not ignored; when I go to Add all the files show up to be added and then committed.

What am I doing wrong!?

Normaly i use the svn-command propset to do it and this one ignores all files whithin the folder 'folder'

svn propset svn:ignore "*" folder

Try setting the Tortoise-Properties to svn:ignore "*" folder
