Making Better Indexes in Apache
There is a wide range of possibilities; some are demonstrated at ... /site.fancyindex /httpd1.conf:
User webuser
Group webgroup
ServerName www.butterthlies.com
DocumentRoot /usr/www/APACHE3/site.fancyindex/htdocs
<Directory /usr/www/APACHE3/site.fancyindex/htdocs>
IndexOptions FancyIndexing
AddDescription "One of our wonderful catalogs" catalog_summer.html /
catalog_autumn.html
IndexIgnore *.jpg
IndexIgnore ..
IndexIgnore icons HEADER README
AddIconByType (CAT,icons/bomb.gif) text/*
DefaultIcon icons/burst.gif
</Directory>When you type ./go 1 on the server and
access http://www.butterthlies.com/ on the
browser, you should see a rather fancy display:
Index of /
Name Last Modified Size Description
--------------------------------------------------------------------
<bomb>catalog_autumn.html 23-Jul-1998 09:11 1k One of our wonderful catalogs
<bomb>catalog_summer.html 25-Jul-1998 10:31 1k One of our wonderful catalogs
<burst>index.html.ok 23-Jul-1998 09:11 1k
--------------------------------------------------------------------In the previous listing, <bomb> and
<burst> stand in for standard graphic icons
Apache has at its disposal. How does all this work? As you can see
from the httpd.conf file, this smart formatting
is displayed directory by directory. The key directive is
IndexOptions.
