Answer 1

The first folder has an uppercase F, First have you tried renaming it to first or using First in the browser?

Answer 2

For MAMP, a web page starts from htdocs,

So instead of

http://localhost/MAMP/first/index.html

please visit

http://localhost/First/index.html

For windows environment, letter case may not be the problem, so First, first, FIRst are all "ok", but if you migrate the code to a unix/linux platform, letter case must matches. Hence as a good practice please make sure you use the letter case in links properly
