You'll now want to see how your document looks in a web browser, and to check if your code has any errors that keep the page from loading properly. First save your document in the directory we've created. If it isn't saved, it'll be tough to read. Once your document is saved, you'll open up your browser. Your browser is probably set to go out on the web as soon as it's opened; you'll want it to start on a blank page instead. To accomplish this, you'll have to figure out which of these four groups you belong to:
To set this up on Firefox:
Open the Tools menu and scroll down to "Options." Click on the Main tab, and in the list of startup options, select "Show a Blank Page."
Open the Tools menu, then scroll down to click on "Internet Options." Under the tab marked General, in the "Home page" box, click on the button marked "Use Blank."
Under File, choose "Open File." Select the HTML document from your directory (which should still be on your desktop) and click "OK." Your document should now be displayed as a web page in your browser window (even though it's not really out on the Web).
If your page doesn't look the way you hoped it would, you'll want go back to the text editor to recheck your code for errors or spots you could improve.
