I'm not using PHP. XAMPP finds my .html file just fine, BUT it doesn't process the HTML. Instead, it displays the file as text.
Why?
This could happen if you have saved the file with the option (SAVE as text FILE)
for example if you have saved your file as abc.html then it would become abc.html.txt
enter image description here
so it is supposed to be a html file but it will become text file

I save a basic "Hello World" html file on TextEdit on my mac, but it won't open as a webpage and I just see code when I open the file.
Go to your text edit and under prefrences
Make sure this is checked
Make sure plain text is selected
Create a new file and named the file with format also
For example: index.html <--- where html is the format
Then you are good to go!
I have a text file which contains a number.
I need to read this text file and display this number on a html page in a link.
Have a look at PHP and the readfile(), fopen() or file_get_contents() functions to read data from a file on your server.
so i am pretty new to this and i was wondering if the index.html file for my site is supposed to be a text file (also, i'm on Windows 10). When i create the index.html file in file explorer the file that makes the most sense to me is a text file. (The files are: bitmap image, contact, rich text document, text document, and compressed zipped folder), So i would assume i'm supposed to pick text document. The folder ends up looking like index.html.txt, not sure if this is how i'm supposed to do it.
Start notepad, or an editor of your choice.
Type in the content you want for your file.
Save-As “Index.html” in the location you desire.
Well, the file extension is in the name itself ".html" just the same as a Cascading Style Sheet (CSS) file would be saved as a ".css" file and a Javascript file as ".js"
Everything after the "." is the type of file.
Yep, everyone above answered correctly. You want to save the file in a plain-text format with a .html at the end. Then you can open it in a browser like Internet Explorer and it will interperate the file as an HTML page.
You can use a program like CoffeeCup to easily edit HTML files and it will save them as plain-text.
You can't edit HTML files in rich-text editors like Word.
I am trying to write my first html document.
Here is the link to the reference.
I am using TextEdit on Max OSX 10.6 and after I save it (as an html file) it is opened by the browser by double clicking on it. However the source script text is shown instead of the html structure.
What I am getting wrong?
You need to convert it to a plaintext document
Click Format and then 'Make Plain Text', then make sure to save as .html
Does the icon of the file has an "e". Usually these kind of files should have an icon as an e. Also make sure you are saving it as .html file. I think the actual extension of the file is hidden.
