You could, but I don't see any point doing so. It's not something you want people to load.

What should then be used instead of /path/to/folders? A dot (.)?
No, keep the absolute path.

OK, I figured it all out. But there is one more problem. What if a directory does have an index.php? The script will still add index.html even though it's not needed. How would you modify you script to avoid it?
Code:
[ -f $d/index.html ] || [ -f $d/index.php ] || cp /populate/index.html $d/
