I also already set the index.js according ejs.
const express=require('express')
const path=require('path')
const app=new express()
const ejs=require('ejs')
app.set('view engine','ejs')
app.use(express.static('public'))
app.listen(4000,()=>{
console.log('App listening on port 4000')
})
app.get('/',(req,res)=>{
res.render('index.ejs')
})
app.get('./about',(req,res)=>{
//res.sendFile(path.resolve(__dirname,'pages/about.ejs')
res.render('about')
})
app.get('./contact',(req,res)=>{

<p>Never in all their history have men been able truly to conceive of the world as one: a single sphere, a globe, having the qualities of a globe, a round earth in which all the directions eventually meet, in which there is no center because every point, or none, is center — an equal earth which all men occupy as equals. The airman's earth, if free men make it, will be truly round: a globe in practice, not in theory.</p>
<p>Science cuts two ways, of course; its products can be used for both good and evil. But there's no turning back from science. The early warnings about technological dangers also come from science.</p>
<p>What was most significant about the lunar voyage was not that man set foot on the Moon but that they set eye on the earth.</p>
<p>A Chinese tale tells of some men sent to harm a young girl who, upon seeing her beauty, become her protectors rather than her violators. That's how I felt seeing the Earth for the first time. I could not help but love and cherish her.</p>
<p>For those who have seen the Earth from space, and for the hundreds and perhaps thousands more who will, the experience most certainly changes your perspective. The things that we share in our world are far more valuable than those which divide us.</p>
<h2 class="section-heading">The Final Frontier</h2>
<p>There can be no thought of finishing for ‘aiming for the stars.’ Both figuratively and literally, it is a task to occupy the generations. And no matter how much progress one makes, there is always the thrill of just beginning.</p>

<p>Spaceflights cannot be stopped. This is not the work of any one man or even a group of men. It is a historical process which mankind is carrying out in accordance with the natural laws of human development.</p>
<h2 class="section-heading">Reaching for the Stars</h2>
<p>As we got further and further away, it [the Earth] diminished in size. Finally it shrank to the size of a marble, the most beautiful you can imagine. That beautiful, warm, living object looked so fragile, so delicate, that if you touched it with a finger it would crumble and fall apart. Seeing this has to change a man.</p>

<p>Space, the final frontier. These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no man has gone before.</p>
<p>As I stand out here in the wonders of the unknown at Hadley, I sort of realize there’s a fundamental truth to our nature, Man must explore, and this is exploration at its greatest.</p>

I have tested your codes, after using the correct syntax for routes, all should be working fine.
// the route './about' is incorrect, please change the rest.
app.get('/about',(req,res)=>{
res.render('about')
});
And also check all the href. It should link to route or url.
<a href="/about">

The weird thing is that I explicitly specified a jquery http address as below, and it worked with chrome browser on my mobile phone, while now it doesn't work again, but it stills works with mi browser on my mobile phone, interesting?
<script src="http://cdn.bootcss.com/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
{% bootstrap_css %}
{% bootstrap_javascript jquery='full' %}
below is a picture of an issue I'm having with the navbar collapse from bootstrap. I'm running express, node, and handlebars. This header is a partial. For some reason, it keeps expanding outside of its div and I cant figure out why.

Here are my two pages of code for the main page and the header partial. On home.hbs I'm using a CSS grid, not sure if that's causing it or not.

Anyone know? I've tried adding container-fluid to multiple divs. It appears that jquery and bootstrap are working. I've installed these through bower.
I had an issue where my page content was being overlapped by the navbar, try removing the fixed-top property.
I have a weird problem happening on my ejs pages. When I include header and footer partials on any page that loads with a route parameter, the page hangs. When I hit the stop button on the page load, the page loads fine. On pages that do not have a route parameter, I have no issues.
I get the following error in node (the page loads with a route parameter called eventid):
params for results to find by eventid: { eventid: 'app.css' }
SOMETHING WENT WRONG GETTING RESULT: { CastError: Cast to ObjectId
failed for value "app.css" at path "event_id" for model "results"
I added a comment below after posting this question. I figure I would add some information here to give more details. My app.css link in the header partial is the cause of my problems. When I comment it out it works fine. In node, I've used the following line to include files in my resources folder which is in the root of my app. This works fine except when i load it using the partials footer. app.use(express.static(path.join(__dirname, 'resources')))

It turns out that the problem I was having was related to the referencing of external files (in this case my app.css file). I was referencing it in my ejs header partial using: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="app.css"> however the error was fixed when I added a backslash to the href: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/app.css">.
Essentially, when referencing resources such as a css file that is in a folder that is declared in app.use (app.use(express.static(__dirname + "/resources"));) you need the backslash to reference the root of your application and then access the resource you plan to reference in the ejs views.
Working with Material Design Lite, and the initial test is proving unreliable. I'm trying to reproduce the demo shown here: The first Layout Example.
It looks like this, a menu header with a hamburger icon: . However when I try to implement this in my project I get the header with the "Title" text, but no Hamburger Icon. What am I doing wrong?
Here is my code:
<head>
<meta name="mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes">
<link rel="icon" sizes="192x192" href="images/android-desktop.png">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com/icon?family=Material+Icons">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://code.getmdl.io/1.2.1/material.cyan-light_blue.min.css">
</head>
<body>
<div class="demo-layout-transparent mdl-layout mdl-js-layout">
<header class="mdl-layout__header mdl-layout__header--transparent">
<div class="mdl-layout__header-row">
<!-- Title -->
<span class="mdl-layout-title">Title</span>
</div>
</header>
<div class="mdl-layout__drawer">
<span class="mdl-layout-title">Title</span>
<nav class="mdl-navigation">
<a class="mdl-navigation__link" href="">Link1</a>
<a class="mdl-navigation__link" href="">Link2</a>
</nav>
</div>
<main class="mdl-layout__content">
</main>
</div>
</body>
</html>
There's no explicit mention of the menu icon and I believe that is because the default is for it to appear although the documentation is unclear on this point.
Here's the code they list to use for this demo to work:
<style>
.demo-layout-transparent {
background: url('../assets/demos/transparent.jpg') center / cover;
}
.demo-layout-transparent .mdl-layout__header,
.demo-layout-transparent .mdl-layout__drawer-button {
color: white;
}
</style>
<div class="demo-layout-transparent mdl-layout mdl-js-layout">
<header class="mdl-layout__header mdl-layout__header--transparent">
<div class="mdl-layout__header-row">
<span class="mdl-layout-title">Title</span>
<div class="mdl-layout-spacer"></div>
<nav class="mdl-navigation">
<a class="mdl-navigation__link" href="">Link</a>
</nav>
</div>
</header>
<div class="mdl-layout__drawer">
<span class="mdl-layout-title">Title</span>
<nav class="mdl-navigation">
<a class="mdl-navigation__link" href="">Link</a>
</nav>
</div>
<main class="mdl-layout__content">
</main>
</div>
<div class="mdl-layout__drawer-button"
role="button" aria-expanded="false">
<i class="material-icons">menu</i>
</div>
add this between these two divs mdl-layout__drawer, mdl-layout__content
