hmtl (help)
|
|
I am learning to write hmtl. No problem with the code, However I cannot reproduce the text only.Following instructions,after typing a simple basic page on Notepad I click 'file', 'save as', 'all files'and save as 'page 1hmt'on documents. I then go on internet explorer, click 'file' 'open' browse, and enter the file 'page 1 htm' However there is no sign of the file on documents. So I then go to documents find the file I have saved and bring it up. It is the same as I typed with the code, instead of just the text. What am I doing wrong.

When you save it, give it an extension of HTML (capitals for clarity only), e.g. index.html. Now when you double-click the filename, it should open in your default browser.

Just so you know, you should always name your 'home' page as index.html. This is so the browser knows which page to open first.

When you save it for the first time, in Notepad :
File > Save As > type index.html and press Enter. Close Notepad.
Next time you want to make changes :
Right-click index.html > Open With and choose Notepad. Make the changes and File > Save. Close Notepad.
To see your efforts, double-click the filename index.html and it will open in your default browser.

It's not working because you're putting hmtl instead of html

You'll have to improve your English/spelling if you intend to write web pages/sites. Spelling mistakes and grammatical errors will make your site look amateurish and laughable.
