Hello everyone,
I work in IT for a school district, and one of my users has requested that I am not quite sure about, so I wanted to post here to see if anyone has any thoughts.
This user teaches a web development class that uses the classic notepad to code in HTML. Currently, the user is teaching with Internet Explorer (which will be going bye-bye) because he likes to be able to view the live local webpage. When they want to edit the local source, they can just right-click and click view source, and the original Notepad opens and they can keep editing. When trying to do this in Edge, it just opens up a non-edible version of the source code in a new tab.
Does anyone have thoughts on how to replicate this experience in Edge?

Hi,
I am really open for an alternative to directly edit html code from the browser (as was possible in MSIE). All good intentions above, but with frames in frames and 10.000's of html files connected it is not doable to update them in any other way.
Hope Microsoft listens to us.
same here... help....
