Hi.. 

  I think that everyone should know that the default page of Apache is very WHITE when no default files (index.htm, index.html... etc) in the web directories.

If you have no default files in your directory, then you will be given a 

 404 error, by default this will be whatever your local browser 

displays as a 404 error message.  This can be altered to show a custome 

error page:

ErrorDocument 404 /path/to/404-error.html

I hope I can establish a http file server by Apache and let the default page more beautiful like HFS (http://www.rejetto.com/hfs/). What can I do??

If you want to use a service similar to HFS, then you need to look at 

MOD_DAV - http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_dav.html

and
MOD-DAV_FS - http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_dav_fs.html

That is, if I understand your request properly.

Cheers,
Tony
