Thank you for telling me to restart web sharing, I didn't know what was wrong.

how do you put your web pages in your /library/webserver/documents/ directory?

@aricjiang420 You can usually just browse from your hard drive to the folder and drag and drop files in, or just save them from your text editor.

help me please i wan't start web sharing but idk how i start server but how change content of page ?? where i need upload my site

@OXOTHUK101

You can put your web pages in two locations:

/Users/[YourName]/Sites/

OR

/Library/WebServer/Documents/

I put mine in "/Library/WebServer/Documents"­, because then you can access your web pages by going to "localhost/example.php" or "10.0.1.1/example.php" (your network IP address would be different than 10.0.1.1).

If you use "/Users/[YourName]/Sites/", you would have to go to "localhost/~YourName/" in order to view your web pages.

Make sense?
