Linux webserver running Suse Server 11 Help with Apache

Hey Guys, I'm a newbie to Linux, but I'm trying to learn. I have my Capstone class at school and I have been chosen to set up the Web Server. It has to be A Linux server and I chose Suse Server 11 using the Lamp server. I've installed the Apache, but I'm not sure what files I put the html in or the css style...php...and I'm not sure how to config it or where to add the link to my page/my servername. All this is being done in a virtual machine. I use VM Ware...I know Apache a little in Windows, but Linux seems to be a whole new "ballgame". Do I have to create the files for the page codes? And if so? Where to create them? :confused
