How do I get html code saved in notepad to load in Internet Explorer?

I want to make a simple web page with html. I just want to view it in IE, but I don't need to put it on the web.





I'm not doing anything fancy. I saved my notepad document and then I went to 'file' and 'open'. It is trying to get me to open up a new web site (like google or yahoo or whatever) but I can't figure out how to view my html.

How do I get html code saved in notepad to load in Internet Explorer?
Create the file with Notepad.





Then do Save As.. Make sure you name it yourfile.html using the .html extension. Also make sure to click where it says File Type and choose All files. otherwise notepad will add the .txt extension.





Open Internet Explorer...go to File..choose Open..Browse to the folder where your .html file is...and click Open
Reply:Save it as .html





So when you click save as type webpage.html (webpage can be whatever you want)

Reply:After finishing your code, you need to save the file as whatever you want to save it as, then log onto IE. When on IE go to the top left corner and click File, then open, and a box will pop up. Click browse, and search through your files to find yours that you just saved. On mine, I need to change one of the drop down menus to instead of Txt files to All files. Your HTML file should be under HTML lesson, and then all files ok? Then double click it and it will go back to the box, click open and u can see it. If you get a weird thing on the top of your screen saying that it's blocking content or whatever just allow it to go through cuz it doesnt do anything! As you keep changing your code, just click the refresh button on the top of the page to update it.
