Best Practice for Automated Link Creation

kbowen

I am searching for a best practice, or strategy for accomplishing the following:

With our commodity website, we have a number of different areas with a fairly simple architecture. In each directory, there is an index.html file that contains hyperlinks to all the other html files within that same directory.

Here is what I would like to do:
When a user generates a new .html file (via templating)… I need the index file to be automatically updated and regenerated with a link to the newly created file. I would prefer that this process be handled automatically, in that the author will not need to manually edit the index page to insert the hyperlink.

Thanks for any of you thoughts,
Kyle

Is the index page generated from a DCR or is it an HTML page, an ASP page, a JSP page, .... ?
