when a user is in the sudoers list, and they use the sudo command to execute predefined commands as root, sudo prompts for the USERS password, not the root password.
Dear,
Thanks for help, i need a proper link or documentation. i dont only need to excute the command but needs to edit the file too. I made some attempt but not effected,
i m using ubunto as desktop, put my site in /var/www/umair. i made the group data. put user alpacino in it and chown root:data to /var/www/umair. when i edit index.html through user alpacino it says changing Readonly file.

I'd recommend jsut about any introduction to unix administration book, that should explain the file access rights.

why would root own your website? far more common for the user to own his own website files.
anyways, does group 'data' have write privileges to the file /var/www/umair/index.html ?
