PHP

Servers still looking for a deleted page, has been changed in code

I have edited by menus to go a different page. However the server is still looking for the old address. I am sure I have changed the link and refs in the code.

If you could post your code it would probably be easier to help. Off hand though, I would say make sure you refresh your browser. It could be that you're just getting a cached version of the page you updated.

I've implemented a menu using an unordered list:

<ul class="menu">
  <a class="bold" href="index.php">About Us</a>
    <li class="menu"><a href="about/mission.php">Mission</a></li>
    <li><a href="about/philo.php">Philosophy</a></li>
  <a class="bold" href="acad/academics.php">Academics</a>
    <li><a href="acad/mathematics.php">Mathematics</a></li>
    <li><a href="acad/wiriting.php">Wiriting</a></li>
    <li><a href="acad/art.php">Arts & Technology</a></li>
  <a class="bold" href="admiss/admissions.php">Admissions</a>
    <li><a href="admiss/prices.php">Prices</a></li>
    <li><a href="admiss/application.php">Applications</a></li>
</ul>

however when I run the page from my MAMP server, once clicking the list for mission, the page is looking for http://localhost/First%20Step%20Academy%20/aboutus/mission.html

I have refreshed the page and also restarted the servers This question is trivial but upon searching I haven't found the answer. I was trying to show you my code above however, I am not sure what to wrap my code in order to prevent the browser from processing my HTML

I went ahead and fixed your code. If you click "edit" you can see the changes I made to get it to show up. In short, you just add three back-ticks ` (usually by the 1 on your keyboard), before your code and then three back-ticks after your code block. If you look toward the bottom of the page, there should be a link to a markdown cheatsheet. Have a look at that if you are interested in learning more about how you can format your questions.

As far as your problem goes, I can't really see any reason clicking a link to "about/mission.php" would take you to the location you listed. I'm not a MAMP user, so I don't have any direct experience with this, but I was able to find this: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/19079089/mamp-time-between-seeing-live-changes - You might give that a try.
