as long as you are using proper tags...
than go to file>saveas and save it as all files instead of .txt and put .htm or .html after the file name.. should work

If you are using Windows XP and are doing webpages its always a good idea to have "file extensions" visible.

To turn these on:
1. Double click on My Computer on the desktop.
2. Click Tools > Folder Options.
3. Click the "View" tab.
4. Now in the Advanced Settings list scroll down to "Hide extensions for known file types".
5. Make sure this is unchecked.
6. Click "Ok".

Now that you have extensions turned on, browse to the folder where your web pages files are (the ones you creates in notepad). You should now see either:

filename.htm.txt or filename.htm

"filename" will be replaced with whatever you called your page (e.g. page1 or mypage or something). If you see your file has .txt on the end then you should rename it so that is either:

filename.htm or filename.html

Now that you have your html file named correctly you must open it in your browser (most likely Internet Explorer) to see the results of your coding. So open the browser and then do File > Open. Now click "Browse..." and select your html file that you have created. Click Open and then Ok.

You should then see your page being displayed. If you don't then let us know because there may be something wrong in your webpages code that causes it to not be displayed.

Congrats on diving into webdesign!
