2605N/A<h3>Summary</h3>
2900N/A
4070N/A    <p>The index of a directory can come from one of two sources:</p>
4070N/A
4070N/A    <ul>
4070N/A      <li>A file written by the user, typically called
4070N/A      <code>index.html</code>. The <code class="directive"><a href="#directoryindex">DirectoryIndex</a></code> directive sets the
4070N/A      name of this file. This is controlled by
4070N/A      <code class="module"><a href="/mod/mod_dir.html">mod_dir</a></code>.</li>
4070N/A
2605N/A      <li>Otherwise, a listing generated by the server. This is
2605N/A      provided by <code class="module"><a href="/mod/mod_autoindex.html">mod_autoindex</a></code>.</li>
2605N/A    </ul>
2605N/A    <p>The two functions are separated so that you can completely
2605N/A    remove (or replace) automatic index generation should you want
2900N/A    to.</p>
2900N/A
2900N/A    <p>A "trailing slash" redirect is issued when the server
2900N/A    receives a request for a URL
2900N/A    <code>http://servername/foo/dirname</code> where
4070N/A    <code>dirname</code> is a directory. Directories require a
4070N/A    trailing slash, so <code class="module"><a href="/mod/mod_dir.html">mod_dir</a></code> issues a redirect to
4070N/A    <code>http://servername/foo/dirname/</code>.</p>

2605N/A    <p>The <code class="directive">DirectoryIndex</code> directive sets the
2605N/A    list of resources to look for, when the client requests an index
2605N/A    of the directory by specifying a / at the end of the a directory
2605N/A    name.  <var>Local-url</var> is the (%-encoded) URL of a document on
2605N/A    the server relative to the requested directory; it is usually the
2605N/A    name of a file in the directory. Several URLs may be given, in
2605N/A    which case the server will return the first one that it finds.  If
2605N/A    none of the resources exist and the <code>Indexes</code> option is
2605N/A    set, the server will generate its own listing of the
2605N/A    directory.</p>
2605N/A
2605N/A    <div class="example"><h3>Example</h3><p><code>
2605N/A      DirectoryIndex index.html
2605N/A    </code></p></div>
2605N/A
2605N/A    <p>then a request for <code>http://myserver/docs/</code> would
2605N/A    return <code>http://myserver/docs/index.html</code> if it
2605N/A    exists, or would list the directory if it did not.</p>

    <p>Note that the documents do not need to be relative to the
    directory;</p>

    <div class="example"><p><code>
      DirectoryIndex index.html index.txt  /cgi-bin/index.pl
    </code></p></div>

    <p>would cause the CGI script <code>/cgi-bin/index.pl</code> to be
    executed if neither <code>index.html</code> or <code>index.txt</code>
    existed in a directory.</p>
