PHP Issues

I am following the tutorials and also implementing my own pages into my htdocs as well. I have a index.php, stylesheet.css and multiple other files in my htdocs. When I go to local host to view these, none of css or include 'header' is visible. Do you know what the problem might be? Does my mamp have to be within the htdocs? I have it in the application folder. I have a mac.

You need to be sure the paths to the header and css files are correct.

What does the top of your index.php look like?

<?php include('include/header.php'); ?>

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/stylesheet.css" type="text/css">

Is at the top and I have my stylesheet in a css folder within htdocs and my header file in a include folder.

Does the MAMP's application location have anything to do with this?
