[users@httpd] where are html files stored
hi:
I just installed apache http server to my windows machine, and i think
i did it successfully, because when i put this http://localhost:80/ in
the address field of my browser and pressed enter, i was greeted with
a successful install message.
I am just wondering where apache stores my html file. Let's say I
want to create my own index.html, which folder should I put it so
apache would know to look for it?
Please keep in mind that I am only running apache locally, because I
want to test some cgi scripts with it.
thank you very much for feedbacks.

Ben,
Put it wherever you like.
Edit httpd.conf to indicate where it is...
#
# DocumentRoot: The directory out of which you will serve your
# documents. By default, all requests are taken from this directory, but
# symbolic links and aliases may be used to point to other locations.
#
DocumentRoot "i:/www"
#
# Each directory to which Apache has access can be configured with respect
# to which services and features are allowed and/or disabled in that
# directory (and its subdirectories).
#
# First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of
# features.
#
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
</Directory>
#
# Note that from this point forward you must specifically allow
# particular features to be enabled - so if something's not working as
# you might expect, make sure that you have specifically enabled it
# below.
#
#
# This should be changed to whatever you set DocumentRoot to.
#
<Directory "i:/www">
#
# Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
# or any combination of:
# Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
#
# Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All"
# doesn't give it to you.
#
# The Options directive is both complicated and important. Please see
# http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/mod/core.html#options
# for more information.
#
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
IndexOptions NameWidth=*
#
# AllowOverride controls what directives may be placed in .htaccess files.
# It can be "All", "None", or any combination of the keywords:
# Options FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
#
AllowOverride None
#
# Controls who can get stuff from this server.
#
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

No doubt everyone here would recommend you read the apache docs.
Well, answering your qn - If you installed apache as /usr/local/apache2
- the httpd.conf file in conf folder will have the DocumentRoot
directive showing where your html files are stored.
