http://larsjung.de/h5ai/ h5ai makes browsing directories on HTTP web servers more pleasant. Directory listings get styled in a modern way and browsing through the directories is enhanced by different views, a breadcrumb and a tree overview.

The whole point of this nginx indexer is that it uses "HttpAdditionModule" and HTML/CSS no other javascript ;-) This makes it very secure, because you don't even need php for this to work. Good addition to staticly generated blogs.

Please drop the font-size property on a elements to line up the columns.

I'll fix this in v1.1 :-) Thank You!

Looks nice, though I feel keeping the right 2 columns at a fixed position would make things easier to read.

agree. without alignment, it looks like a mess.

very nice though. The icons looks like Ubuntu style.

Fixed! You can remove "font-size: 120%;" in .nginx.style.css on line #330 or download new diridx.tgz

You can also add a gallery in jquery :) I did it with apache, and nginx https://github.com/jul/prettyAutoIndex

I did not published nginx version though

Will this work with an s3 bucket?

I'm looking for a personal, static gallery to put on top of a bucket of all my photos.

If you have Nginx+HttpAdditionModule installed I don't see why not.

I did something similar recently for an S3 bucket: https://github.com/PatrickStankard/bucketlist

I see exception warning on line #6 when javascript disabled.

That makes sense, it depends on JavaScript :)

Very nice, the fact that only requires an nginx module (which I didn't know existed) is a big plus in my book. I will definitely be using this.

If anyone makes new stylesheets for this, please share. I'll add a link to it.
