    Hi Jithendra, ordinarily if you are coding in Notepad, keep Notepad and the browser open

    When you make changes to the HTML in Notepad, press Ctrl + S to save your changes in Notepad.

    Then jump over to the Browser and press Ctrl + R to see the changes take effect

    Does this not work for you?

    That is very common in web design, since your web browser will cache the last version of a local web page

    Just use Ctrl + R on the browser every time you change some of your code

    I run a virtual server on my system for web design and still sometimes have to refresh on different browsers when checking my code . . .
