Directory Indexing


NCSA httpd allows you to create HTML catalogs of your directories, in order to tell users what's in them. A catalog can be held in document or generated by the server on-the-fly. In the latter case, the server can add descriptive strings (which you specify) to the directory entry items, and mark them with icons that depend on the file type. All of this is configurable by you, the server administrator.

Here is a sample of a server-generated directory.
