How do I view my .HTML file as a website, not in a text-only format?
I'm learning to use basic HTML. I wrote a short file in TextEdit and opened it using Firefox "File" --> "Open". It loaded the page, but instead of reading the HTML code, it left it as text, including the angle brackets and commands. I would like to view my page as a normal site, with working italics, bolds, hyperlinks, etc. Is it possible to do this with Firefox? If so, how?

It sounds as if the file is not recognised by Firefox as an html file - it thinks it's a text file.
I don't know MACs but here on Linux that has nothing to do with whether the file has an 'html' extension. Does the file start with an <html> tag? (After <!DOCTYPE - if you have included that - it's optional.)
If so I suggest that you create the file not with a text editor but with a program that is designed to produce html files. You probably have one on your machine already but if not try Bluefish.
A MAC user could give a better answer.
Good luck.
