Running Web objects
To run one of the Web objects in a WebSpeed project:
1. Verify that the server is running in the Servers view.
The label next to the server name should be Started, Synchronized. Right-click on the server name and choose Start or Publish if necessary.
2. Right-click on a source file.
3. Select Run As > Run on Server.
Note: The Run On Server wizard appears where you can choose an existing server or define a new one.
4. Choose a server and click Next.
5. On the Add and Remove page, verify that the module that contains your source file is on the Configured list.
6. Click Finish.
The user interface is displayed in an internal browser that appears in your workspace. Any other output is directed to a separate TTY window.
You should also be aware of two other methods for running your code:
*You can click the menu button next to the Run As button on the toolbar. The menu allows you to select an available server without going through the Run on Server wizard.
*You can enter a URL of the web object in an external browser. This is particularly useful if you want to see how your application is rendered in alternative Web browsers. In the URL, you specify the path to the WebSpeed broker followed by the name of the web object. For example:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/cgiip.exe/WService=wsbroker1/MyWebObject
