[ PHP localhost issue. Folder not opening when clicked inside localhost ]
I just installed WAMP server to start practicing PHP. I created a folder in www directory. However, when I try to run the file from localhost it does not run.
For ex, I created a folder "test"
in www directory. I saved an HTML file called "test.html" inside the test folder. Basically I have saved it in www --> test --> test.html
.
I started localhost in my browser. I found test folder there. But when I click that test folder, instead of opening as "localhost/test"
, it is opening as just "test/"
. How to make sure that the folder, when clicked inside localhost, should open as "localhost/<foldername"
(in this case "localhost/test"
).
When I type as "localhost/test"
in my browser, it works fine. But when I go to localhost and click on "test"
folder it does not open.
Please help me to overcome this.
Thanks in advance.
