I click preview to view my webpage & it leads me to a page that says, "Index of/" and a hyperlink to my page.

How to I get it so that when I click the preview button, it automatically brings me to my page in one step rather than in two steps?

Hi Kelly,

If you can either post a snapshot of your Workspace (in the upper right corner) or post your code here via the Markdown Cheatsheet (with the three tickmarks ` above and below your code), it could help others try to help resolve your issue easier.

The link provided is inaccessible to others. You can fork your Workspace (upper right corner) to give us the ability to access a clone of it.

Please take a look at this explanation from one of our Teachers. In particular, note his post about "index.html"

After renaming your "Index.html" file to "index.html", I was able to view the webpage without seeing "Index of /"

thank you! I did not get that far down in the previous explanation and would have never thought a capital letter was the cause of that.
