It was an html file before then i saved it as a php file and saved it into a folder where in it is inside htdocs of the folder of xampp. All the related files are in the folder i created. Why isn't it working? :( Pls help.

What I have tried:

it is said that usually if i receive that kind of error it means it might have been moved or removed or renamed, i did try to change it's location of folder once but returned it again, and the address is correct as far as i know. :(

The error message is quite clear. The resource you requested cannot be found. And we have no way of guessing where it might be located.

Follow this example,

      htdocs +
             |
             mywebfolder +
                         |
                         mypage.php

Start the Apache server, type this into the address bar of your browser:
