    Default Silly Preview HTML question! :D

    Hi All,

    A silly question, indeed.
    Ever since I installed MX Studio I can't seem to get my "preview in browser"
    to preview a simple HTML page. It's as if it wants to view CF and can't find
    any code, so it opens a page but displays an error. I work with both CF/SQL and
    HTML pages, so I'd like to be able to preview both on the fly. So far, any
    alterations to preferences and preview settings has proved fruitless.

    Any ideas?

    Many thanks!

    Do you have a testing server defined for this site?

    Do you need a testing server for this site?

    What is this site's virtual folder name?

    What happens when you browse to [url]http://localhost/yourvirtualfoldername?[/url]

    :) Ah! Many thanks! I didn't thoroughly check the testing server path - the beginning localhost settings were incorrect. It works now.

    Again, many thanks!
