10,895 PointsHow can I make my "About" page appear directly from the "index.html" page? When I click on About I'm having a 404 Error
My "about" page only appears from the preview on my "about.html" file and not from the Home page (index.html) on the browser. I'm thinking that for someone reason my "index.html" and my "about.html" aren't linked to each others. Where in my code should I focused on to make sure that I able to linked the both pages?

If so, the path the 'a href' points to, outside of WrkSpaces, doesn't exist yet on your own computer. You need an about.html somewhere on your computer for the index.html to 'point' to.
think about if/when you save a webpage on your system, it saves the html file, as well as a folder named with the same name as the html file, which includes all the images, and other pages like css to make the page format and look pretty. This is what WorkSpaces simulates, a series of files that index.html references, as if it was your hosted site.
