VS code/Live Server Browser issue

1 New Member
Hi,


I am using the Live Server app, with VS Code. The issue I have is, as soon as I start coding, in the left column, the browser disappears, from the right.

Everything works fine, if I position/size VS Code/restore down Browser, side by side. Unfortunately that's with the browser working externally, from VS Code, not within its environment, the essence of the app.

The browser does automatically refresh but to see the refreshed/edited code, I have to access the browser from the taskbar, on laptop, unless I position the VS Code/browser together.

The whole concept of Visual Server, is to see edited code immediately, as I code.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Can you provide more details on what machine you are on? Windows version, mac version.
I have this running on windows 10, right now and it works

Live server will utilize an external browser and not one inside the VS Code interface. So you have to place the browser window side by side to VS Code to see the live updates.

That is how I have been using it.

It reloads the site when you hit save. Cntrl +S or Cmd +S, depending on your operating system.

However, I now want to setup a test environment. All the PHP scripts start with a few lines of: require_once "library file at specific location on server"

I have a VB.NET web project that I wrote on my computer with Studio. It works great, on my computer. However when I ported it over to my company's production server it doesn't know how to handle the codebehind. Other programmers have written NET pages using Matrix, which puts everything in 1 file instead of splitting it up, and they work fine. I tried merging my Studio's aspx and vb files into one but it didn't work. Does anyone have an...

We've been using dotNet for a couple of years now and have been updating our live server by just overwriting (Explorer drag and drop) the aspx and assembly files until we had some errors reported to us a couple of months ago that some clients received application server errors at the moment we updated (if I remember correctly, they were sharing or process in use errrors). Since then, we've been paranoid about ensuring that there is no...

I use the session_end in global.asax to perform clean-up of a temporary shopping cart table.

Hey guys, I used this free tutorial on how to make a live server clock. I did, but a) doesn't work (not too worried, I am sure I can fix this) and b) it out puts the clock to a input text field?! I want it to be in just a normal text display? The core code: <!-- function startclock() { var server_time = new Date();

I created a script where a user can select from a variety of shipping options for an order from within a jQuery dialog box. The shipping rates are delivered via UPS & FedEx.
