Howto open .html file for editing ?

Hi,

I am using Code::Blocks V10.05 and want to edit an html file.  My problem is that whenever I open eg "index.html" <file/open/index.html HTML/PHP/ASP/JS files> the file is displayed in the HTML viewer, not the editor.  I tried adding a registered wildcard as <Settings/Environment/Files extension handling/.html> but that doesn't help.

Thanks,

Boo

"Setings -> Environment -> Files extension handling" is correct.
Add *.htm* and chose to open it in a Code::Blocks editor.

Works fine here on linux and I use it every day at work on windows.

That's a joke, right ?

OK, that did work OK, I had ".html" where I should have had "*.htm*".

But this is a stupid PITA for an editor of the calibre of Code::Blocks, can anyone tell me why this problem has not been sorted by now ?

Thanks,

Boo

Code::Blocks is made for C/C++ Programming.

It is a poor workman who blames their tools.
