The Answer
What was that question again? Finding the Home Page			The URL for the site was: xroads.virginia.edu/~HYPER/HNS/domwest/coon.html To look at the rest of the site, you would "peel away" the parts of the URL systematically from the right. You would try to find the main folder that contains the Web page by following the steps below.
If you did this:			1. Delete the name of the page ("coon.html"), then get your browser to search the new URL:
			xroads.virginia.edu/~HYPER/HNS/domwest/
Your screen would look like this:
"No matter how elaborate, web pages are just files on someone's computer."			You would be looking at a list of files. This may be surprising, or disconcerting. Until now, you have been looking at nicely designed web pages, but now you would find yourself in a "Directory." The lesson: No matter how elaborate, web pages are just files on someone's computer. The names listed in blue on your screen would be the other files associated with this web site. Those with the suffix ".html" would be other web pages. As you scrolled down the list of files in the directory, you would find that the file on this list most likely to be the main page is "domwest.html."
