[users@httpd] AddIcon for icons within the listed directory during FancyIndexing

Is there a method, during FancyIndexing, to specify that the icon to
display for each directory is stored within that directory?  [Such as the
folder.jpg icons used by WinXP.]

I could not find a way to generate a reference to each directory in the
AddIcon methods, such as "AddIcon $DIRECTORY/folder.jpg ^^DIRECTORY^^"

That's what I thought.  I had hoped I missed something. :(

I'll probably use a CGI to emulate the FancyIndexing as I already have one
that works similarly (has better control over sort order).

Ahh.  I misunderstood what you wanted.

No, I don't believe that is possible.  You could, of course, hack
mod_autoindex.

Yes, that does not work, because that filename is a relative filename, and
its relative to the current directory, not the individual subdirectories.

Given ...

/www/folder.jpg
/www/dir1/folder.jpg
/www/dir2/folder.jpg
/www/dir2/subdir/folder.jpg

... when viewing the /www directory, the /www/folder.jpg will be used as
the icon for BOTH the /www/dir1 and /www/dir2 listings since folder.jpg is
relative to the "current" directory, which is just /www

Likewise, when viewing the /www/dir2 directory, the /www/dir2/folder.jpg
icon will be used as the icon for /www/dir2/subdir instead of the
/www/dir2/subdir/folder.jpg icon that it "should" be using.

Have you tried just AddIcon folder.jpg ^^DIRECTORY^^
