HTML - What Is Supposed To Be In These Folders?

Hi,

I've seen that in many websites the url in the web browser are folders instead of pages:

www.site.com/folder1/
www.site.com/folder2/
www.site.com/folder1/folder3/

I guess they use a server configuration.

Could you give me more information about it ? Or indicate a tutorial ?

thanks

Hello
I am not sure if this is the correct area for this question but i'll give it a shot
I'm just wondering if there is a way to make a custom icon for a zipped folder?
this is a file that would be e-mailed
Thank You

Guys n Gals.

Is it possible using HTML to search local folders for files.

The scenario:
At work we have a networked folder, that is constantly being updated with either txt files or xml files and such. This changes on a daily basis.

Is it possible to search using html. I don't wish to build a database, as this would require constant attention. I would like to send out a small HTML page, with our company logo, that references the newtrk location.

If so, would anyone know or have the code to do this.
Java would also be suitable.

Hiya,

The default page for my website (e.g., www.mywebsite.com) is www.mywebsite.com/index.htm.

However, I want to be able to tell certain people to go to "www.mywebsite.com/info" to get served a special page.

Is all I have to do:
1. Create a folder called 'info',
2. Insert my content into a file called index.htm and place in that folder.

I've tried the above with FF and IE and it seems to work fine - am just checking it's the best way of doing it.

Thanks,
James

I am a beginner at wp design and a newbie at actually coding html but I can already see the need to develop a clear set of guidelines for using folders to organize my work. For example, I am inclined to want to make 3 folders for each website, one called webpages, one called images and one called CSS. Is this useful/ a good idea? Or should I create a folder for each webSITE and then a folder within for each webPAGE? I am guessing that mirroring this structure on my webspace would be helpful - would facilitate uploading and downloading. Please comment also on relative references - at least I think this topic is related.

I would appreciate any insight from some of you veterans out there to keep me from pulling out what little hair I have left
