Can I declare the DirectoryIndex In .htaccess Non-recursively?

In my /httpdocs/ folder I need to change the filename of index.php. I did this by writing a new line to my .htac开发者_运维问答cess file:

DirectoryIndex index2.php

However, it seems that all subfolders under /httpdocs/ were looking for index2.php for their DirectoryIndex file. Is there a way I can alter the DirectoryIndex file for my /httpdocs/ folder without it recursively affecting every folder under it?

You could try this...

DirectoryIndex index2.php index.php index.html

Apache will look from left to right for the index file.

For example, if index2.php doesn't exist, it will look for index.php.
