HTML Editor
Write HTML Using Notepad or Text Edit
Web pages can be created and modified by using professional
HTML editors.
However, for learning HTML we recommend a simple text editor
like Notepad (PC) or Text Edit (Mac).
We believe using a simple text editor is a good way to learn
HTML.
Follow the four steps below to create your first web page
with Notepad or Text Edit.
Step 1: Open Notepad (PC)
Windows 8 or later:
Open the Start Screen (the window symbol at the bottom left
on your screen).Type Notepad.
Windows 7 or earlier:
Open Start > Programs > Accessories > Notepad
Step 1: Open Text Edit (Mac)
Open Finder > Applications > Text Edit
Also change some preferences to get the application to save
files correctly. In Preferences > Format > choose "Plain Text"
Then under" Open and Save ", Check the box that
says "Ignore rich text commands in HTML files".
Then open a new document to place the code.
Step 2: Write Some HTML
Write or copy some HTML into Notepad.
<!DOCTYPE
html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>My
First Heading</h1>
<p>My
first paragraph.</p>
</body>
</html>
Step 3: Save the HTML Page
Save the file on your computer. Select File > Save as in
the Notepad menu.
Name the file "index.htm" and set the encoding to
UTF-8 (which is the preferred encoding for HTML files).
You can use either .html or .html as file extension. There is
no difference, it is up to you.
Step 4: View the HTML Page in Your Browser
Open the saved HTML
file in your favourite browser (double click on the file, or right-click - and
choose "Open with").
