Building web pages with a text editor. If you've come here, you are probably trying to do your own coding in HTML, CSS, or JavaScript.

Once the document is saved as a web page, you can preview that document by double clicking on it. Your computer will bring up your default web browser and open the document for viewing. I have found these enter a lot of extra coding that does nothing but take up space. They are also notorious for mis-placing vital tags or forgetting to insert them. Using a full text based editor, YOU are the only one that can make the errors.
