Hey @ratnamGT, It seems like the file was not uploaded properly to the issue. 😢

Curious if you are using the Z Open Editor or Zowe Explorer. Either way, which VSCode extension are you using for previewing the HTML file in VSCode? I'm using george-alisson.html-preview-vscode 😋

Hey @ratnamGT, I believe I might be able to help.

The first issue is ,HTML file is not opening by default in ISO8859-1 encoding ,I need to select encoding each time on HTML file .

To avoid doing this, you can change the USS File Tag to ISO8859-1.

  1. Right-click the BuildReprt.html file
  2. Select Edit Attributes
  3. Modify the Tag attribute on the displayed form
  4. Click on Apply changes

After you have done this, the file should open in ISO8859-1 by default 😋

second issue is ,it is not previewing and opening the file in VScode browser. It is opening in external brower

There are a few things that can be causing the HTML file to be opened on a browser by default. It is possible that some OS configuration might be forcing VSCode to do so. Another way is based on the keybindings defined in VSCode. For example,
