Linking shirts.php correctly but getting 404 error

A simple link to the shirts.php page but when I'm pressing the link, I'm getting a 404 error. Not sure why, this seems like an easy thing. Going over my code, I don't see any errors.

Here's my shirts.php <?php include('inc/header.php'); ?>

<div class="section page">
    <h1>Mike&rsquo;s Full Catalog of Shirts</h1>
</div>

<?php include('inc/footer.php'); ?>

And here's my header.php from which I'm linking the shirts.php to through the <a href> tag <html> <head> <title><?php echo "Shirts 4 Mike;" ?></title> <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/style.css" type="text/css"> <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Oswald:400,700" type="text/css"> <link rel="shortcut icon" href="favicon.ico"> </head> <body>

<div class="header">

    <div class="wrapper">

        <h1 class="branding-title"><a href="./">Shirts 4 Mike</a></h1>

        <ul class="nav">
            <li class="shirts"><a href="shirts.php">Shirts</a></li>
            <li class="contact"><a href="contact.php">Contact</a></li>
            <li class="cart"><a href="#">Shopping Cart</a></li>
        </ul>

    </div>

</div>

<div id="content">

Dummy mistake. I accidently created shirts.php within my inc folder and not outside of it. Even still I could just reference it differently if i wanted to keep it in there. But I took it out and put it in my home directory. LOL.
