Hello all, I am building my first website and using GitHub to host through Pages for the first time. Something that has come up and I'm unsure how to correct are 404 errors "two pages in". Meaning the user clicks on a /root file, then a subfolder file, then wants to click to file outside of the subfolder. For example index.html > legal.html > index.html. What is the file name in the code for that last link? What if it's index.html > legal.html > (another file in the same subfolder as legal.html)? I've tried index.html /index.html ./index.html and ../index.html ~ Any guidance is appreciated!
