HTML standalone folder -> how to upload onto a wordpress page?

  I have written several small HTML pages, each page a frameset with audio and graphics, and each frame containing more of the same. Each individual “page” usually has a key html file named “presentation” or “frameset”, and that is the one I want to have users click on when they come to my wordpress site.
  Twice I have failed with similar results: I loaded all files via the media upload (from computer) and then posted the files to a page. (I was on the HTML tab, not the visual tab.) When I clicked on the “frameset” file I did see a frameset, but it is a frameset that presents the home page of the wordpress site twice, not the files I named within my own code. A view source shows the correct names of each frame in the frameset, but they are not what wordpress is presenting.

  These files all worked well togehter when they were not on a website, when they were all in the same folder just on my hard drive.
  Can you please tell me what I might be doing wrong? I noticed I can’t upload the folder entire via the media upload feature – I need to name each file and upload each file separately. I conceptualize putting them all on the same page is akin to having them in the same folder, but I know that is not what wordpress is doing.

  I sincerely appreciate your attention to my problem. I learned what little html I know long ago and independent of website construction, so I am way behind on the learning curve. Thanks.

  I’m sorry, but some embed code will not work because we remove JavaScript, Flash, iframe, form, and input tags for security reasons.

  There are no restrictions if you setup a self-hosted WordPress.org blog instead of a WordPress.com blog, but there are some added responsibilities. We have hosting recommendations at the following link if you are interested.
