External links go to live view page

I am having a problem with Dreamweaver (new user) that I can't seem to solve.

Having problem that in the pages I am building if I put in an external link to http://www.google.com and select it to view in an external browser the URL that shows in the browser is    "http://127.0.0.1:60882/preview/app/index.html"    which is the URL that the live device preview link sent to my iPhone, something else that not is working.

Any suggestion on how to proceed is welcomed....

    Actually, that's exactly how Real-Time Preview works.

    If you want to test external links locally, right click on your document tab or a file in your Files Panel and select Open in Browser. See screenshot.  NOTE:  Don't use F12.
