3. Enter the path or FTP settings to the web server folder you created in
"Creating a root folder" on page
The folder may be on your hard disk or on a remote computer. Even if
you created the folder on your hard disk, that folder is still considered
to be the remote folder. The following example shows a possible
Remote Folder path if you chose Local/Network access and your
remote folder is on your Windows hard disk:
Remote Folder:
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\MySampleApps
For more information on FTP, see "Setting Remote options for FTP
access" in Using Dreamweaver (Help > Using Dreamweaver).
Leave the Site Definition dialog box open. Next, define a folder to process
dynamic pages.
Specifying where dynamic pages can be
processed
After defining the Dreamweaver remote folder, specify a folder to process
dynamic pages. Dreamweaver uses this folder to display dynamic pages and
connect to databases while you're developing your application.
To specify the folder to process dynamic pages:
1.
In the advanced Site Definition dialog box, click Testing Server in the
Category list.
The Testing Server screen appears. Dreamweaver needs the services of a
testing server to generate and display dynamic content while you work.
The testing server can be your local computer, a development server, a
staging server, or a production server, as long as it can process JSP
pages. In many situations, including setting up for the Cafe Townsend
site, you can use the same settings as the Remote Info category (see
"Defining a remote folder" on page
capable of processing JSP pages.
2. Select JSP from the Server Model pop-up menu.
3.
In the Access pop-up menu, select the same method (Local/Network or
FTP) you specified for accessing your remote folder.
Dreamweaver enters the settings you specified in the Remote Info
category. Leave the settings unchanged.
