I am trying to learn a little HTML native scripting as well as some Javascript. What file type should I use to save my info that will execute it? If I save as a text file, it opens it in notepad; if I write in word and save as html, the code itself is then coded.
solution?
Whenever I did html I wrote it in notepad and saved it as name.html.
If you do use notepad, you might have to put quotes around the filename you're saving, otherwise it might save the files as "name.html.txt".
To get around the quotes thing whenever you go to save it select "All Files" instead of "text files"
I know there is a way for that to work. Maybe I'm cursed, because even if I select All Files it still always seemed to save it incorrectly. It might be that you have to select All Files before you type in the proper filename...Quote:

Then again I haven't coded in notepad for like 4 years...
Yeah...select all files, then type in the name.html. If you open it in notepad you'll have select all files. If you open it from explorer you'll have to right click and say open with notepad, or it'll open up in your default web browser.
