When I try to preview in the latest Dreamweaver I get this in my browser "You tried to access an external HTML page, which can not be opened on the device for preview. Open the page in Dreamweaver to preview the page on the device." How can I fix this?
thanks...
Are you working from a Defined Site in DW?
RTP doesn't like it if you're just working on random pages on your desktop, you'll need to define a site so DW understands what it's doing. Even if you don't put in FTP info, it still wants to know where your files are in relation to each other and won't get that info from your OS.
Personally, I just turn it back into the old Preview in Browser in the Preferences...
Edit > Preferences > Real Time Preview > check the box at the top for Default to static br
