How To Open HTM Files

DESCRIPTION:

An HTM extension is identical to and has the exact same specifications of the HTML file extension, associated with Hyper Text Markup Language code used to develop and build webpages on web sites. HTM files were developed so that DOS-based computers, which cannot recognize any file extension longer than three letters, could still be used to write web code. HTM code was first standardized in 1996 by a group of software developers who provided input to an organization known as the World Wide Web Consortium, or W3C. In the year 2000, the International Organization of Standards, the ISO, formalized the standard, officially publishing it as ISO/IEC 15445:2000, which is still maintained and revised regularly. HTM source code can be opened, read, or edited in any basic text editor if desired right from a web page.
