      So I’m new to HTML, CSS and Javascript and my first we page I’m developing won’t compile and I don’t know why. Does “Notepad++” support debugging? If so, how?

      Thank you.

        Not really … but it helps a lot with syntax highlighting

        if you have this:

        <html>

        </html>

        And klick on the closing tag, it shows you also the starting tag. This is very helpfull.

        Also on typos
        <html> </htm>
        it shows the valid starting tag in a different color as the invalid closing tag

        Or if you have nested brackets

        @media (max-height: 400px) {
        .my_class {

        }
        

        }

        Just klick on one bracket and it shows you the counterpart
        For debugging try Firebug and
        https://validator.w3.org/ (html)
        http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/ (CSS)

          Thank you. I’ll try firebug. I used it before but not for debugging.

            I’m back and have a question regarding the CSS validation link: is there a “more detail” section? I have a parsing error on lines 1 and 3 and it gives me the vaguest details.

            Here they are:

            Value Error : background Parse Error C:\Users\Baba\Desktop\Portfolio\Sonic Mania\Images\Title), width=“1020”, height=“840”

            Value Error : background Parse Error C:\Users\Baba\Desktop\Portfolio\Sonic Mania\Images\Logo)

              These are not Notepad++ - related questions. As this is a “Notepad++ Community”, we focus on Notepad++ issues here, not HTML, not CSS, etc. Please find a more suitable forum to ask those types of questions. Also, Google is very tolerant. :)

                Thank you. I’d do that. Apologies for derailing the topic. I always do that for some reason. Thanks again.
