Directory listings

[Daskew]

Hi all,
I have some directories setup on a website to browse and download files though http. But when browsing the directories, the listing view appears to completely random. How do I make it so that it lists the directores at the top of the page and not mixed in with the other files?

Also is it possible to do this server wide for all websites that list files on their websites?

Thanks in advance.

surely someone knows how to do this?

I know you can click the links at the top to sort the list.

thanks for replying. I clicked the "size" link at the to which sorted the directories to the top. But it's only for that specific page and reverts ack if you leave the directory and come back.

Is there no way to do it by default?

Dave, perhaps a URL to your website would help with your question.

But I must ask - how is this related to the Direct Admin Control Panel?

you can set indexing options, ignoring any user input (clicking etc)
using the appropriate apache autoindex directives.

the possibilities are explained at any of:

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/1.3/mod/mod_autoindex.html

http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/mod/mod_autoindex.html

if you're using 2.0.23 or later, then the FoldersFirst directive looks useful
