Tip: Testing the changes without switching to the view mode
You can quickly test the changes you make to the web part values by opening/refreshing the web site in a new browser window. However, you will need to use a different browser (e.g. IE for design and FireFox for testing) since the view mode is stored in cookies (if you use different browsers, they use different cookies).
It's also useful to use tabbed browsing support in IE 7.0 and Firefox for easy switching between the CMS Desk and Site Manager interface. |
