Can Dreamweaver open .manifest files? - html

Is there any way to edit .manifest files with Dreamweaver (CS 6)?
I have a HTML 5 page, with a lot of files connected to it. The manifest sometimes needs to change, or I have to give an update online.
This is not possible with Drwamweaver. When I doubleclick the file, Dreamweaver alerts me that there is no valid editor for this extension. When I doubleclick the file in Explorer, it just opens with Notepad++.

You need to let Dreamweaver know that you want to open .manifest files in code view.
Go to Edit > Preferences
and choose category File Types / Editors
In the input field "Open in code view" you add ".manifest" as a file extension.
Click OK to save your preferences.
Double clicking a *.manifest file will now result in Dreamweaver opening the file in code view.

how can i directly open browser to view html file from vs code?

I write HTML and CSS code in VS Code and for previewing it I need to open file explorer then files then double click them to open them in my default browser.
it takes too much time. is there any proper way for this?
I have tried one live extension called live server but the problem with it is we have to click the 'go live' button any time I want to refresh the code.
If the live server extension is the one by Ritwick Dey..
.. then then after clicking Go Live, it will open your page in the default browser and reload it automatically, every time you save your work.
in some cases, it is helpful to save the folder containing your HTML to a Workspace, in VS Code, especially if you are writing an app using the MVC modal and the HTML and CSS are in subfolders.
You can install an extension called open in browser.
After installation complete restart vscode and go to settings Ctrl + ,. Search for Open-in-browser setting and set your default browser as you can see below:
Then whenever you edit a html file, you can use shortcut Alt + B to open this file in browser.

HTML <a> tag - download attribute not producing download of pdf on chrome

I'm trying to the get a hyperlink to produce a download of a .pdf file when clicked, but instead the pdf is opened directly in the browser.
I've tried moving the pdf from the root folder (that shared with the index) to a subfolder to no avail. I've found other examples of this problem on this site where they seemed to have mis-entered the attribute, but I can't see where I made my mistake if I did.
Download factfile (pdf, 4mb) which contains lots more information, including an FAQ.</p>
It is because Google Chrome is automatically set to open pdf automatically rather than download.
To fix this issue go to 3 dots Options > Privacy & Security > Site Settings > Additional Content Settings > PDF Documents. There you will find "Download PDF files instead of automatically opening them in Chrome". Click on the button ( I don't know what it is in english sorry ) and you will fix the issue.

Display an HTML file on Google Drive?

How can I preview an HTML file on Google Drive? I did a bit of research and it seems hosting HTML has been deprecated by Google in 2016. I tried to open the direct link of the HTML file but it downloads it and doesn't display it. Any workaround ?
Thanks :D
Ironically Google, a company built on html, still has no good solutions for handling .html files on Drive: I'm web developer! If you create a .html file within any text editor (Mac, Linux or MS) and save it with a .html extension (e.g. test.html), that file is now a Browser file, not a text or Doc file. G-Drive was created to be a cloud replacement for MS Office suite of products (Word, Excel, and so forth). It will even save a .txt (or text) file, and display it back as such.
However, a file dropped in Drive (via the Chrome browser) with a .html extension; if you simply click on it, it will be opened by/in Docs, and displayed therein as a web page (and poorly too, since it cannot connect to the styling of the .css file). If you right-click on it, and select "display", it will give a similar display only without opening it in Docs. If you right-click and select "download" it will download in .doc format. Yes, worthless! I copy the html, code and all from the file on my PC, and paste it into a blank Doc file, which is OK for a backup of that file, plus it will spell-check and all, but it is not an easy way to cloud save or sync. And, it cannot open the browser to view it, because it is internal to (or already inside of) the browser. The only accurate way to preview a .html file, is for the file to be external to a browser (any web browser), and then opened inside or with that browser.
To repeat: If you simply click on it, it will be opened by/in Docs, and displayed therein as a web page (and poorly too, since it cannot connect to the styling of the .css file). If you right-click on it, and select "display", it will give a similar display only without opening it in Docs.
I am not exactly sure what you mean by display. If you just want to preview a file in google drive open it and see its contents then the only types are
PDF, Microsoft Office file, audio file, or photo.
Just double click your html file you can preview it in drive.
please see View and open files
If you are actually talking about web hosting a html file then. Hosting of HTML files from within Google drive was Deprecating in August of 2015 and shut down completely in August of 2016 so you can no longer host HTML files directly via Google drive Please see Deprecating web hosting support in Google Drive
Alternative would be to use Google Domains to host a site that way this option is not free as far as I know.

Save only html when "save as" a webpage

When I save a page from my website, I will get an html file and a folder that contains all photos, css and js files.
Is there a way to save only the html file?
I've just found that if you are using Google Chrome you can choose which one you want to save from the dropdown menu 'Save as type'. If you talk about preventing the user to save your HTML - it's not possible, if the browser can see the page, the user can view the source code and save the page.
If you use Microsoft Edge browser, do the following: ctrl+s then select html only on the drop-down menu.
you will get one html file without any extra folders.

Web page not save correctly in google chrome browser

When I try to save a web page using the format "Web Page, Complete," half of the time it only saves the the folder containing the style sheet and images, and the .html file is not saved anywhere on my hard drive. How do I correct this? I have noticed it also happens when I use Safari, so it is not just an isolated issue with Google Chrome.
First save the whole page (webpage,complete) which may only save the folder containing the style sheets and images, again press CTRL+S to save the page but this time select to save only the HTML page by clicking on- (webpage,HTML only).
When directory is saved but not the file, try the following:
In "File name:" include the .html extension (example:
SampleFileName.html), and
Select Webpage, Complete in "Save as Type:"
Seems to fix the bug.
