I just want to be sure that we're aware of this:
when someone saves that file (the html lesson), the structure will be
modified by the browser, now the lesson will not follow our layout.

(example) ff 3.5 creates one folder for the html document when you save it:
"document_files" and here are stored all the files (images, js, css ...)
that the html needs to work.

agree

Thanks Lucian!
finally..it'll be "index.html" (aka Chakra)
