Creating an working "About file" by copying & pasting the index.html file.

I'm trying to creat a working "About File". I copied and past the "Portfolio File" that is working correctly, but doesn't seem to work in the About File. Any suggestions.

When you say "doesn't seem to work", what exactly is happening (or not) different from what you expect?

Also, to facilitate a complete analysis and accurate answer, make a snapshot of your workspace and post the link to it here.

I notice that the links for both the "About" and "Contact" are "indexβ€Œt.html".

If you don't actually have a file by that name, perhaps the "t" is a typo.

I am unable to post the screenshot. When I click on the About link on the website it goes to another screen that says 404 Not Found at the top Not Found the requested URL/indext.html was not found on this server.

Please be aware that a "snapshot" is not a screenshot but a copy of your entire workspace environment. I made the word "snapshot" in my original comment a link that you can click on to go to a tutorial video about how to make them. Then you simply share the URL that they generate.

A snapshot makes it possible to do a complete analysis of the issue.

Thank you, Steven. typo's got me. Also thanks for showing how to do a snapshot. Huge help.
