Hi , i have this directory define on httpd.conf:

<Directory "/home/http/html/filtro">
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
IndexOptions FancyIndexing
Allow from All
AllowOverride All
</Directory>

This directory is working , i mean , the apache build
the index.html automatically when i access to the
directory ,but what i need to do is sort the resulting
(index.html)page's links in date order , no
alphabetically .
In this directory i have at this moment 45,000 html
files , and this directory is indexed whit the HTdig
sofware , so i need to sort the links in the
index.html generated , by date because of the apache
timeout , and i need to see the newest files at top .
How can i do that ?
Sorry by my english.
Thank any help.

Use IndexOrderDefault directive.

# newest first
IndexOrderDefault Descending Date

# oldest first
IndexOrderDefault Ascending Date

For more detail see,

Local copy (you should have it)
http://your.site.com/manual/mod/mod_autoindex.html#indexorderdefault

or,

Online copy
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_autoindex.html#indexorderdefault

45,000 files in one directory! That's a long listing...

Normally, you do this switching on FancyIndexing (see mod_autoindex)
then getting the complete listing (sorted alphabetically) then clicking
on "Date" to resort. But with 45k files and a timeout that won't work...

If you really have to do it like this, I think you might have to hack
the source code to get the date sorting by default - look in
src/modules/standard/mod_autoindex.c for a start.
