Why doesn't my carousel in bootstrap 3.3.7 work?

I've been using dreamweaver for only a few months. My carousel on my index page was working fine until I moved some of my files around so that they would all be in the same folder. Now my carousel won't work at all, I've tried deleting the old carousel and adding a new one, I tried to delete my old file of bootstrap and add a new one... nothing worked. The only thing different between my code for the old carousel that worked and my new code that doesn't work is that this bootstrap has 3.3.7 in the name... could this be my problem?

This is my code:

<!doctype html>

I don't use bootstrap, but as you say you have moved the location of your html files, i am wondering if you also updated the link to the jQuery file within your html file?

Thank you, that did make my carousel work... but don't I need my files to be in one place when I load the finished website onto the server? Or will the URL in my code for the bootstrap always work?

Bootstrap and jQuery are hosted on official CDNs for everyone's benefit.   It saves bandwidth for you and it makes the web faster.

A Content Delivery Network (CDN) is a system of computers that exist all over the world and cache files for users to access. CDNs can greatly reduce the load time of a page by offering files at a higher bandwidth from a server that is physically closer to your visitor than your web server might be.  For example, your server might be in San Francisco but a site visitor might be in Eastern Europe.  

  • Your users in Europe will hit the CDN in Europe and your users in the US should hit the US CDN. As a result, this will reduce your overall page load time.
  • The scripts will already be cached in the visitor's browser if they visited another website that references the same library. In this case, the visitor won't even have to download Bootstrap & jQuery.
  • It's free!
  • If all the CDNs go down at once, the entire planet is in trouble.
