I am trying to link the Lake Tahoe landing page I built in CSS basics to my Designer profile that I built in the "How to

make a website" course. When I click the link it doesnt show any of the images or fonts or colors. When you link another index.html to your existing page how do you get the css to show? I thought the index.html contains all this. Help?

Oh yeah sorry about that. Thanks for pointing me out:

<a href="nameOfTheFolder/index.html"> This is a link </a> //this is a way to jump into that folder and serve the index.html

<a href="nameOfTheFolder/"> This is a link </a> //if your server is configured to serve index.html it will find it and serve it to the browser making the request

Hope this helps. And it shows up correctly :)

Hi Amandeep.

The best way to do this is to create a separate folder and put all your files in there.

Then all you have to do is create a link to this folder: " <a href="http://yourdomain.com/nameOfTheFolder/">This is a link</a> .

This link will change the path to that directory and the your server will find the index.html file on itself (can be configured for which data types it should look) .

I hope this helped.

Happy Coding!!!

Hi Nejc,

Thank your for the reply. Your code to the "link" didnt show. Do you mind posting it one more time? Thanks!
