header.html - where does it go?

Change the style of the default directory index

[paullacey78]

I am a real newbie to apache and I want to change the style of the default index page output (add a bit of CSS to make it look a bit nicer etc).

So I have created a file called HEADER.html but I have no idea where to put it to make it work...

Any ideas, clues would be greatly appreciated...

thanks in advance

Paul,

Wlecome to WebmasterWorld!

The first place to look is the the source: [httpd.apache.org...]

Thanks Jim,

that looks like it will solve my other problem of the page outputting header & html tags twice...

Do you know how I can make this apply to every directory? I only seem to be able to apply custom styles to the default index manually folder by folder

Thanks in advance

I almost never use directory indexes so I'm not sure, but I don't think the HeaderName setting is "inheritable."

THanks to all who helped...

in the end I got it sorted after finding this particlular web link: [corz.org...]

So basically it was using .htaccess file to override the settings in the httpd.conf file....fow anyone that is interested lol

thanks again

Paul
