all all all question: since i am really new at this, i hope i do it right..i'm having a hard time trying to save html and show it in the browser. i keep seeing the code and what i have written, but now in web form. i am using notepad with ie 6.0.can comeone help with that.,please?
thanks, leonardThat's a rather tough way to learn. I'd recommend you Download HTML-Kit (<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.chami.com/html-kit/">http://www.chami.com/html-kit/</a><!-- m -->) so you can have a decent development environment to learn in.If you're seeing the code as plain text, it probably means the file wasn't saved with the correct extension. When you save your page, make sure the file name has an .htm or .html extension.Good catch, Paul. That's exactly right. No doubt he's got extension hiding enabled an Notepad is saving the files as foobar.htm.txt but he can't see that.
Leonard, another good reason to use a real HTML editor and not Notepad.When you save the file in Notepad, make sure the Save As Type drop down box says "All Files." If it says anything else, Notepad automatically adds .txt to the filename, no matter what file extension you type in.
Oh, and HTML Kit is awsome. It supports customizable keyboard shortcuts and is totally sweet. Go to <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://users.tm.net/gburghardt/home/">http://users.tm.net/gburghardt/home/</a><!-- m --> to get a ZIP file with a bunch of keyboard shortcuts and basic standards compliant templates. Run your mouse over the "Web Developement" link and click on "HTML Kit Customized (.zip)" to Download it. It contains instructions on how to install it.to all who have responded to my inquiry on saving html..I thank you all very much. you have been very helpful and considerate. I appreciate it very much. The problem has been solved..thanks, again...........
leonardI noticed with Notepad in Windows 98 you cannot change the filetype extension.
You need to make extensions to HTML, XML, XHTML, CSS, JS and TXT files viewable using your Windows settings.
What operating system are you using?bonner: thanks for the help. I am running windows xp pro. However I have the problem solved! Now i am trying to figure out how to get graphics..Thanks for your answer.

How do you mean? If you change the file type to All Files when you save, you can apply whatever extension you want.For some reason on my mates computer in Windows 98 this never worked. It works on my computer so it might be a problem with his computer.
