Why an HTML file shows as code
An .html file only becomes a page when a browser opens it. Email attachments, Google Drive previews and chat apps show the code instead, and most phones won't open the file at all. That's why a page you made with ChatGPT or Claude looks like text when you send it. To share it, put it online and send the link: see turn an HTML file into a link.
Viewing pages made with AI
Paste the code ChatGPT, Claude or Gemini gave you to check it before you send it. If it looks right here, it will look the same once it's online. Pages that load separate files (styles.css, images, scripts) need those files too: zip the folder and upload it as a website. Made it in Claude? Claude can publish it for you.
Questions
How do I view an HTML file online?
Open the file with the Open .html file button, or paste its code into the editor. The page renders on the right as you type. Nothing is uploaded until you choose to publish it.
Is my code uploaded anywhere?
No. The viewer runs in your browser. Your HTML only leaves your computer if you click Publish as a link.
Why are images or styles missing in the preview?
The page probably refers to separate files, such as styles.css or an images folder, that the viewer can't see. Put the styles inside the HTML, use full https:// image addresses, or upload the whole folder as a ZIP to Droply.
Can I share the page I'm viewing?
Yes. Click Publish as a link and Droply puts it online at a link like your-name.droply.page that opens on any phone or computer. The free plan covers one project with no expiry.
Do scripts run in the preview?
Yes, JavaScript runs inside a sandboxed frame, so interactive pages, games and charts work. The sandbox keeps the page away from this site and your accounts.
