OK, but that still doesn't answer the underlying (perhaps implied yet not
well-phrased) question--what do I need to do to get JSWDK to display
"index.html" when the directory containing it is requested? I've put an
"index.html" in the "examples" subdirectory, and when I offer a browser the
<host>/examples URL, it still gives me the directory listing, which would
indicate that it's not recognizing index.html as a "welcomefile". So what's
the deal, then?
