I tried it and... well I can just do that with a browser.
Also when WebHelper is configured for a separate window that window hogs the
viewport.In other words you can not get at Geany anymore.
I find this Plug-In worthless.

WebHelper is not exactly a preview for your currently edited HTML file.
Most web development nowadays are a lot more than one HTML file, the page
delivered to the client is usually generated a way or another; so it is seldom
enough to simply display the page you're editing. Because of this, the
WebHelper plugin is displaying a URI of your choice (here in your example, it's
displaying about:blank), which can be any scheme supported by WebKit: http,
file, etc.
It was suggested to add a feature to ease displaying the currently edited file,
but there was not enough interest for anybody to implement it.
If you wanted real-time update (instead of having to save the file first), one
could investigate the idea of loading a data URI that changes dynamically, or
any other available mean through the WebKit API.
Anyway, basically to see you page you need to make the WebHelper URI point to
file:///home/caltrop/Web Page/LINUX.htm.
