.html Files Not Saving Correctly?

[sampson]

Why are my .html files saving like this??

[tesco]

add html to the end of the filename when u go to save.

so instead of typing in TEST as a save file, type TEST.html

[sampson]

I am

The problem is, it isnt working.

how are you saving them?
and go verify that the 'hide extensions of known filetypes' is disabled.
(Windows Explorer > Tools > Folder Options > View)

And this is what I get..............

so you just copy/paste to notepad & save?
hmmm....
check what the default application is for html files.
Win Explorer > Tools > Folder Options > File Types
and fine html in the list.

You can't save it that way, You must choose All Files in the filetype dropdown menu.

Then You can save it as something.html

EDIT: Maybe not but that's how I do it

oh yeah! good eye, BOT, I didn't even notice that.
you're right.
that would causet them to be saved as whatever.html.txt

see you should disable that 'hide file extensions' thing.

Done that, didn't work

Did that, but the only change was the file name. (Now it diplays: "example.html") The icon stays the same and when I attempt to open it, I get the 'Page cannot be displayed' crap. I can't figure out for the life of me what I would have changed to make this occur either.

did you check what I was saying about the file type associations?
