The index-simple function generates a simple index of the files in the requested directory. It scans a directory and returns an HTML page to the browser displaying a list of the files and directories in the directory. The list is sorted alphabetically. Files beginning with a period (.) are not displayed. Each item appears as an HTML link.
Indexing occurs when the requested resource is a directory that does not contain either an index file or a home page, or no index file or home page has been specified by the functions find-index or home-page.
