opening html from google drive

Viewed 154419

I have made a page in html5 with css3. It works fine on local (I dont use any server, just doubleclick in the index to open it).
I want to put it in google drive. I have load all the documents needed, but when I try to open the html, I can only see the text (I mean, it is not being executing, I can see just the source code). Any suggestion?

EDIT: As of August 2016 Google Drive can no longer be used to host static web pages, so this solution no longer works.

  1. Create a new folder in Drive and share it as "Public on the web."
  2. Upload your content files to this folder.
  3. Right click on your folder and click on Details.
  4. Copy Hosting URL and paste it on your browser.(e.g. https://googledrive.com/host/0B716ywBKT84AcHZfMWgtNk5aeXM)
  5. It will launch index.html if it exist in your folder other wise list all files in your folder.

Now you can use https://sites.google.com

Build internal project hubs, team sites, public-facing websites, and more—all without designer, programmer, or IT help. With the new Google Sites, building websites is easy. Just drag content where you need it.
