From: "Ron \"RonBo\" Brown" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: mod_autoindex/4968: Header and Readme no longer appears in generated directory index, as did properly in Apache 1.3.6 Date: Tue, 7 Sep 1999 20:17:03 -0700 Thanks for the quick response. Perhaps you misunderstood. The files Readme.html and Header.html do not appear in the generated listing as files. This is correct behavior, as the IndexIgnore directive instructs the server to ignore the presence of these files when generating the listing. The problem is that the contents of Header.html no longer appears at the top of the page, nor the Readme.html file at the bottom, as it properly did in the Win32 1.3.6 version. All I get is a list of files with the Header.html and Readme.html having no effect on the formatting of the page at all. Only the relative path text is at the top of the page where the contents of Header.html should be and at the bottom is the server and port number instead of the Readme.html. This is the proper behavior only if no Header or Readme directive is specified, which is not the case here. These files should be detected by the server and incorporated into their respective parts of the formatted directory, listing the contents of the directory as the body of the page. Thanks again.
