New User Needs help
Hi all and sorry if this seems like a very stupid question but I really can't figure this out easily on my own, which may show my lack of intelligence to the world. I'm very new with using the sun java studio creator and cannot figure out how to use the web browser to test the pages i'm developing. I'm still in the very beginnign phases of my project buy i wanted to see what it looked like in IE. My project is located on the corporate web server and i have given it the correct path to the project folder but so far the only thing i've been able to find with the browser was the .jsp files (Page1.jsp for example); but as you probably know those only show the files as you would see them in, say, notepad. Is there something that i've missed in the tutorials? Any help on this is appreciated.
Thanks,
Pat

I dont know how u might have setup your URL. but I know problem that you are having is with "faces" part of the URL. so lets assume my project is called "xyz" then most probably you will find ur working webpage at, http://servername/xyz/faces/Page1.jsp or http://servername/faces/Page1.jsp (if your application is the root) server name here can be any thing like localhost:8084 (for your local machine sever) or some IP address like 64.254.48.99 (Server's Ip)

I must be missing something here. When i created a project there was no 'faces' directory. there 7 directories created: build, conf, lib, nbproject, src, test, and web. What's strange to me is when i click the 'run main project' button in the IDE it launches a web browser, but it doesn't seems to access the files in the folder i created, which is on a corporate server, instead it launches from localhost:2908/project_name.

Hi There,
When you run an application, Creator first deploys your application war file to the application server , which it has installed when you install Creator, which runs on your local machine.
and once your app isdeployed the ide opens a browser and opens the link to your app deployed on the app server.
the following tutorials will help you understand basics and get started.

also see the Creator field guide

Well there is never a faces directory anyways, its just a url mapping that your web.xml does. Anyways Whateever "K" has said above is useful, just go through it.ThanksSap
