This lesson illustrates how to preview the Web site on a server.
When you are ready to publish your Web application, you need a server that will host the Web application so that users can access your Web site through the Internet.
Note: At any time during your Web
site development, you can open a page in Page Designer and use the Preview tab
to see how your design will look in a browser; however, the Preview view does
not allow you to see the dynamic aspects of your page (such as database connections)
as they would display running from a server.
You can now click through the skeleton of your site to see how the links work, and how the site will display once it is published to a Web server.
- Right-click the all_records.jsp file in the Project Explorer view.
- Select . The Run on Server wizard appears.
- Select Choose an existing server.
- Ensure WebSphere Application Server 7.0 is selected in the Select the server type list.
- Click Finish.
