Lesson 1: Basic HTML Tags
(HTML Primer: Build Your First HTML file)

View Your HTML File
So far, you have viewed your file in notepad.exe only as HTML source code. After saving your file in notepad.exe, you can view it in your browser to see the results of the source code.

To do this, it is suggested that you open a new browser window separate from the course materials to view your file. To open a new browser window, click "File" at the top left, then "New Window", and a new window will open. Then enter the saved filename on the location or address line in your browser. Location bar examples are shown below.

Location Bar in Internet Explorer


Location Bar in FireFox


Location Bar in Netscape
