I was about to say use td:nth-child(4)  (or whatever column it is), but
I just saw you have already realized and dismissed that.

But I think that table layout is fairly stable, version to version, so
that is how I would do it.

Yes, and this is what I do. However, if I discard a column in .htaccess or in other place,

for a specific directory, the output will be broken, meaning a global CSS file is unlikely to

be possible.

I just had a first look on "mod_autoindex.c", and it is messy (lots of "if...else...then", with specific

output for each case). This code would need some cleanup, for sure :)

I believe the mistake could be around line 1785 (version 2.4.6 or 2.4.7). But looking further, I can find the same algorithm

for other columns...
