Did you save it to your desktop as ".html"?

Oh wait, you mean view something like Google in notepad? Isn't that what you get with the "view source" feature?

If you mean Viewing the code of any page, Right click on the page and click "View Source" as louie said

But

If you mean Viewing it as "Open With" .. you can save it as html on your computer asn then Open notepad++ -> Open -> two clicks on the page you need.

Or right click on the page that you need and Open with -> Notepad++

:) hope we helped .

NotePad ++ does not have a "preview" pane. So save the file as an .HTML file and click/double click on that .HTML file to open it in your default Web browser. To open in another browser, use that browser's menu and File/Open to preview.

If you mean the "Code + Design" or "Split" ..
so my answer is no, in notepad++ you can't do it .. because it's not like a frontpage editor ..
but you can open it and every update you make , refresh the current page :)
