Open browser failed when ampersand in path

Open willWashington opened this issue 5 years ago • 3 comments

I know there are several of these Open Browser Failed issues, but I wanted to just submit this to make sure you saw it.

My path was C:\OneDrive\repos\html & css\html5-template.html When I tried to use alt+b to open this html doc in Chrome (my default) I got the error Open Browser Failed. This was due to the ampersand in the html & css. I changed it to html-css and it started working.

Just an FYI for anyone developing this tool.

Otherwise, excellent extension so far!
