How to Add Style to Index Page
 |
Question about cpanel website hosting:
“If I upload folders, with folders in those folders, onto my website (and I do not use an index page) then the server lets me browse right through all of them by making it’s own index page that lists the folders – and then when I click a folder it makes an index page for that folder, and lists all the folders inside of that folder, and then etc etc – until I finally reach the farthest folder – Well that is very very convenient for me – but can I add just a little style to those automatically created index pages? I don’t even know what to call them?” |

Use “IndexStyleSheet directive” to automatically index your created page. Apache 2.2 web server is required to get this working but most web hosting is already using Apache 2.2 including Hostgator. If you need a cheap web host for your website, , you can always count onHostgator. Their shared plan comes with unlimited bandwidth, no limit on web storage, unlimited domain hosting, easy Site Builder, FTP access and much more for almost free.
