one more try...
i posted several days back with a question and still haven't gotten
any kind of response. i figure i'll give it one more try, and if
i don't recieve a response chalk it up to something that can't
be done...
is there any way to override IndexIgnore? the docs say specifying
something else in .htaccess only appends to the value. i've found
numerous other posts to newsgroups et c. with the same question, none
of which have been answered.
if anyone knows if this can (or can not) be done, could you please
let me know? and if not, does anyone know of a good indexing
script i could use either through cron or as a cgi script instead
of using apache's built in indexing?
thanks

Can you describe what you actually want to do ? Is it
functionality or only the appearance you want to change ?
Autoindexing can be turned off or enhanced by using the
"ReadmeName" and "HeaderName" attributes to completely
theme an apache indexed paged.

Bummer. I did not see your first message.

Seems like unignoring IndexIgnore is not possible so
you'll have to write a custom index handler.

I don't think you understand what I'm trying to do, allow me to
clarify:
IndexIgnore is already specified in the default config, to which for
all intents and purposes i don't have write access:
IndexIgnore .??* *~ *# HEADER* README* RCS CVS *,v *,t
I need something I can put in a .htaccess file that overrides these
default settings, and 'unignores' README. using what you specify
only appends more (duplicate) rules to be ignored.
any ideas?
thanks

(as I described in the first email:) I want to make some files that
are ignored by the default IndexIgnore rules viewable in the listings
of specific directories. i.e., README et al in the source directories
for projects i'm working on. i don't really care about the appearence,
i'm happy with apache defaults, i just want to 'unignore' some files.

well, i have several readme.this readme.that files for different
parts of different programs in the same directory, and iirc
readmename/headername only print one file's contents to the top of the
listing. all i want to do is have the file show up with all the
others.
