Placement of files

[civileng68]

I am trying to learn where each file should be.

Where should my pages files be located, such as my homepage and other pages? Should they be in the WWW folder?

Also what about my images? Where should my images be so that they show up on the site?

The best structure to set up is:

public_html (for your index.html file and have it go to a sub directory)
This is your root folder, try to keep it as clean as possible

public_html/images (for all your .gif, .jpg, etc image files)

public_html/forum (if you have one)

public_html/website (for your main site files)

now all you have to do is create your index.html to direct your links to your images, forums or main website!

Hope this helps!

the main folder for your site is www or public_html. they are the same thing. Anything html files in those folders will show up at www.yourdomain.com

If you create a folder within the www or public_html folder it will show up as www.yourdomain.com/foldername

your images can go in www or public_html or as the other guy said a folder called "images within www or public html. You just have to make sure that the image tag <img> in your html points to them.
