[TriLUG] creating a index page dynamically

[Brian Henning]

One option would be to remove any index.* file from the directory and allow
Apache to automatically index it for you.  I think by default, Apache will
generate directory listings in folders where there is no index.* file.  I
forget the specific option, but someone can pipe up with it I'm sure.

This assumes that you want every file in the folder to be known to the
world.  If you're more selective, then you'll need to roll your own.

I have a web server that is just a bunch of html documents.  I have an
index page that links to each of the documents.  Is there a script in
apache or bash that can create an index page that links to each of these
files, so that everytime I add a file i do not have to edit the index
page.
Thanks,
Chris
