today i was working on dreamweaver i had just installed and i was getting this message that said:
you must save this file in order to preview it in a browserso how do you get rid of this message.
very easy, i will show you how:
1. In Dreamweaver CS, go to Edit > Preferences
2. Under Preferences, select Preview in browser:
- select your favorite browser, in my case, i will select Firefox
- check the box that says: Preview using temporary file
- Hit OK
Done. after this you can just preview your work in a temporary html file instead of having to install a web server on your Dreamweaver computer.
if you still get this message:
to preview pages containing server-side code, you must need a testing server. would you like to specify one now?
[] Don't show this message again
just click no. and check the 'Don't show this message again' so you dont have to see this error again
