Web Hosting, .html files?, please help ! Options

[nikx618]

okay, so i made a file on notepad, and saved it as a .html file.
right?
inside the .html file, is it just content? or is it the whole website template too?
like, do i copy the template EVERY time, i make a .html file, with different content?

&after i loaded the .html file to cPanel on 000webhost.com
i tried to make a link like this
<p><a class="menu" href="root/layoutspage.html" target="_self">layouts</a><br />
&it does not work, it shows

***Error 404 - The Webpage cannot be found

Most likely causes:

* You clicked a link that can be outdated
* You are trying to access file that does not exists on server
* Domain you are trying to access is not configured on this server (website was removed or is not setup or DNS has not propagated yet).***


i mean, wtf is with that. i loaded the .html file to the root directory, and it says it cannot be found.

anyone please help?
i'm going crazy. xP

Ok I started learning website design from scratch as well.

Get out there and read read read tutorials- they'll boost your understanding and teach you a lot in a short time.

It's very hard for us to answer some of your questions because they really are fundamental aspects of web design.

I wouldn't start bothering yourself over PHP just yet. Dive headfirst into some HTML tutorials and grasp the basics then start learning how to mix in some CSS as well to get your pages looking funky.

There really are a wealth of tutorials out there, just use google and search.

I've written one as well- First website

Also, i started from your position as well and built my site from scratch with little to no help.
