How can I display my HTML files in my browser??

[51487]

Hello,
I was trying to view a page I was making in my browser because I had to test the way that the form was working. I have the HTML files saved at C:/eb_games.html, but I can't figure out how to display it as a web page instead of just a file.

Thanks!!

Run browser (ie Internet explorer) select from menu:
File -> Open -> Browse and select the html file with form. You would be able to type in values into fields, but you would not be able to test it's functionality. To test functionality you need a real web server with a script that server your form.

Download the apache web server and run it on your machine. It is a free download and you can run your own web server locally.

There is plenty of docs out there how to install apache.
You need to move the files within the realm below the document_root.
If Apache has the document root set to c:/Program Files/Apache/www/ you should copy the files there.

Then you can access them in your browser vial localhost.
