Using the sandbox you already have

[Place your text here]

Did you ever wish you had a place to store a web page or snippet of code so that you could experiment with HTML or CSS? Maybe create content and refine it over several days before posting? Good news! You already have such a place -- your computer.

'Web browser' is a misleading term because it implies that it is [only] for reading documents stored on the Internet. More accurately, it should be called 'software that processes and displays documents containing HTML and CSS, no matter where they are stored'.

The documents you view in your web browser do not need to be on the Internet! They can also 'live' on your PC/MAC hard disk.

Try this experiment:

1. Surf to Michael's sandbox page -- [http://www.botos.com/eons/sandbox.html]
2. In your browser, click on FILE | SAVE PAGE AS and save the web page on your hard disk.
   note: Exact process varies slightly by browser and PC/Mac. Use a name like 'sandbox.html'
3. Next, open up the document you just saved in your favorite editor
4. Change the 'Place your text here' words on line #11 with anything you want.
5. Save your changes and close your editor
6. Then open the file in your browser [usually you can do this by just double clicking the file name in your folder display].
7. You should see the changes to the document that you just made.
8. Enjoy your sandbox !!
