Hi. Thanks for your explanation. It makes sense.
However, the "magic" I asked about was based on your first suggestion:
simply use
http.Handle("/", http.FileServer(http.Dir("webpages")))
As I said, it works if the file to be shown is index.html. My question: how
do I modify that in order to use main.html instead of index.html?
The whole program of my current unsuccessful attempt is in my post above.
It works to show main.html but finds neither the css nor the js files.
Thanks!
