Webhosting Directory Index: Difference between revisions

The web server does not automatically produce a directory index, i.e. a list of files in a directory if there is no index page. However, it is simple to add a directory index to a directory using a simple script. If you load the following as index.html then it will produce a simple directory index for the directory it is in. Obviously a much more sophisticated script could be written with icons, and sub directories, and so on, and there may be such scripts available on the web in perl.

 

#!/bin/csh

echo "Content-Type: text/html"

/bin/ls -ld "$f"

end
