Directly from the file system, try dragging the file (mouse drag and drop) into a browser window. Otherwise adjust to fit (note THREE slashes: The first two are attached to the PROTOCOL file://. The third one is "directory root". Windows: file:///c/users/you/desktop/file.html Linux (OSX similar) file:///home/you/Desktop/file.html Android: file:///sdcard/file.html Or you could install a basic webserver (IIS, Apache, nginx, python test webserver), copy the file to webroot and: http://localhost/file.html The file should start with some form of <html> and the extension should be .htm/.html so MIME types work as expected. Windows Notepad will tack on ".txt" to ".html" (so: "file.html.txt") unless you force it to name it what you say by writing "file.html" (use ") the first save. If you've already done this on Windows show extensions (an explorer setting) and get rid of ".txt" which confuses browser MIME typing. Upvoting Sublime Text; avoid document processing editors. * None of this requires you to be "online".

Abiword is document processing program. Use a text editor. While the choice depends, I suggest Sublime. Don't use Abiword or MS word, etc.

Shouldn't be so. Still, insert this <!DOCTYPE html> at the top of every html document. And one thing else. Did you save the file with .html extension?? What text editor you were using?? MS windows had a stupid setting to hide the extensions from file names. And if you use the notepad, it generally saves the file with .txt extension

Or, If you would prefer an online alternative, use Mozilla thimble. Great thing.

My computer is in an extra ordinary state ..i am not going to discuss about that now! .. this can be considered as an explanation! any how i tried to open that with bluefish text editor ... there were a lot of more codes added .. possibly by abiword .. including : <!DOCTYPE html> .. etc Then i tried : LiberOfficr Writer ..but that program scaped! I can not use kwrite which was my usual editor ... recently it had got a problem and does not work .. Finally i returned to abiword! but it said : can not open that file because it is an invalid document! I had created that file with abiword and had openned that with the same editor several times! I think and understood that all this is relared to the extra ordinary state of my computer .. I have been busy with programming during the last few years .... this is just an answer and the only explanation thank you for your help I must solve the problrm myself because it is out of this discussion

I also will not connect to Internet until i am done with my work which is creating an intelligent OS .. More explanations available in : linuxquestions.org/irajjs Thank you all again Regards
