Previewing wireless pages in a phone emulator (Windows only)


    You can preview your XHTMS mobile profile, cHTML/iHTML content, and WML content using emulators provided by mobile phone manufacturers. See the Nokia, SonyEriccson, DoCoMo, or Opera Web site for information on acquiring an emulator.

To set up preferences for previewing in a phone emulator:

  1. Make sure that you have a mobile phone emulator installed on your hard disk.
  2. Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or GoLive > Preferences (Mac OS), and select Browsers from the list on the left.
  3. Click Add, navigate to the emulator, select it, and click Open.
  4. If you want the phone emulator to be the default browser to preview your page, select it in the scrolling window. Any browsers selected in the list will open and preview your page when you click the Show in Browser button Preview in Browser button on the toolbar.

To preview your page in a phone emulator:

    If you have set up the emulator to be the default, click the Show in Browser button Preview in Browser button on the toolbar.

    If the emulator is not the default, choose it from the Show in Browser menu on the toolbar. Or, choose it from the File > Preview In submenu.

    After the emulator is open, you can use the Launcher window to choose any of the listed phones to emulate. In the Viewer window, use the arrow keys and the Enter button to navigate as you would on a phone. Generally, you can ignore the Menu button since GoLive automatically sets the path to your file when you use the Preview in Browser button on the toolbar.
