Answer 1

This is a simple html file "demo.htm" stored in the same folder as the node.js file.

  
    
Heading
    
Paragraph.
  

Below is the node.js file to call this html file.

var http = require('http');
var fs = require('fs');

var server = http.createServer(function(req, resp){
  // Print the name of the file for which request is made.
  console.log("Request for demo file received.");
  fs.readFile("Documents/nodejs/demo.html",function(error, data){
    if (error) {
      resp.writeHead(404);
      resp.write('Contents you are looking for-not found');
      resp.end();
    }  else {
      resp.writeHead(200, {
        'Content-Type': 'text/html'
      });
      resp.write(data.toString());
      resp.end();
    }
  });
});

server.listen(8081, '127.0.0.1');

console.log('Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8081/');

Intiate the above nodejs file in command prompt and the message "Server running at http://127.0.0.1:8081/" is displayed.Now in your browser type "http://127.0.0.1:8081/demo.html".
