Page customization

You can easily customize the appearance of pages served by SVR.JS by adding custom head and foot sections. These sections can be linked to every .html file served by SVR.JS.

To customize the head, create a head.html or .head (SVR.JS 3.0.0 or newer) file in the web root directory. For the foot, create a foot.html or .foot (SVR.JS 3.0.0 or newer) file in the web root directory. Both custom head and foot sections will also be linked to directory listings if the enableDirectoryListingWithDefaultHead property in config.json is set to true.

For individual directory listings, you can add custom head and foot sections as well. Create a HEAD.html or .dirhead (SVR.JS 3.0.0 or newer) file for the head section, and a FOOT.html or .dirfoot (SVR.JS 3.0.0 or newer) file for the foot section in the specific directory you want to customize. You can also add a description of the directory (in HTML format) by creating a .maindesc file in the respective directory. You can even apply CSS styles to directory listing table (using #directoryListing CSS selector and custom directory listing head and foot).

You can add index page to web root or directories in web root with one of those file names: index.html, index.htm and index.xhtml.

From SVR.JS 3.5.0, you can change directory listing icons by replacing the icons in the .dirimages directory located in the web root. If an icon is not present in the .dirimages directory in the web root, SVR.JS will fall back to using icons in the .dirimages directory in the same directory as the SVR.JS script.
