Gijs,

You can run gdaltindex multiple times (with different directories for instance)
or list multiple directories on a single commandline.  If the directories are
all simple subdirectories of top25 you might be able to do something like:

./gdaltindex top25.shp /var/www/html/datalocal/top25/*/*.tif

The key is that you have to provide all the directory seperators in your
wildcarded expansion.

Best regards,
