Software that creates a website with a catalog of different files to download?

[starriol]

Good day!

Let me explain what I need.
I have a folder, with about 30 subfolders, each of which contains hundreds of files.

What I want is to have a way (using either static HTML or PHP, I don't care as long as it's automated) to create a catalog of these files, with a download link.

I should end up with several sections, each named after each subfolder.
So if you click on the link to "A", you should see a link that is called as the file name and if you click there, you go to a download page for that file (or the file itself).

Any ideas???

What OS are you using?

Simplest solution would be FTP with IIS. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh831655.aspx

I could use windows & IIS, but I need this to be a website, not an ftp.

Apache will do this with the +indexes directive in your config. The default result looks something like this:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/
and you can theme it I believe.

Thank you for all your responses.
I'm looking for something more integrated into the website itself.
The only example that I could find of something similar to what I'm looking for (in presentation, not content, we'll be using it at our college for educational purposes).

You can select a different letter (which would be a subfolder) and go from there.

You could whip up something in PowerShell.

Get a recursive list of all files and folders and Export to HTML.

Easiest way is to write a script that generates this stuff. It's a one time job and shouldn't take you more than an hour or so if you have some experience with scripting.

I have a version of this that's nonrecursive for cataloging pictures but it should be easy enough to make it recursive.
