I don't know what it is going on here, can anybody help? thanks for help.

Apache's default config on many distributions makes it so you can go to http://localhost/doc/to read the Apache documentation. You can edit this out in your httpd.conf or apache2.conf file if you need to use /doc for your own URLs.
