falkencreative Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 What operating system are you using? Most often this happens when the file is saved as filename.html.txt -- according to the default settings on both Windows and OSX, the file extension is often hidden.

falkencreative Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I would suggest doing this... -- open up a new Explorer window -- go to Tools > Folder Options -- go to the View tab, and make sure the "Hide extensions for known file types" checkbox is unclicked -- go back to your saved html file, and make sure it doesn't have the .txt ending, and rename the file to filename.html if it does. Follow these steps and then post if you are still having issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadbands Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 thanks for all the help. I open the new explorer window. clik on tool. but there isn't a folder option there. there is a internet option. i went in, but there's no view tab in there.
