In case you can't get http-server to work, make sure you have the whole directory included

I just spent a ton of time trying to figure out why my ajax server wouldn't work, and realized you have to have the whole directory selected (that includes all css and js folders, not just the index.html file!).

In case anyone had trouble getting their http-server set up, I thought I'd point this out in case anyone made the same mistake.
