Hi
My limited web skills are really starting to show how bad I am. I am struggling to get my text editor file to show up in web browsers. I am using PC not mac. Any help much appreciated

The easiest way to open your file in a browser would be to open the folder that contains your file, right click, and choose "Open with.."
In my case it would be with Chrome but you should see whatever browsers you have installed
