| <div><div class="p">You can browse method content in both the <a href="authoringperspective.html#authoringperspective">Authoring Perspective</a> and <a href="browsingperspective.html#browingperspective">Browsing Perspective</a>. While authoring method content, you can see a preview |
| of the published page for the content you are editing by selecting the <strong>Preview</strong> tab |
| at the bottom of the content editor. Click any link in the displayed page |
| to go to that page. Use the buttons in the editor toolbar to perform familiar |
| browser actions such as back or refresh. While browsing method content in |
| the browsing perspective you can see a preview of any method and process content |
| in a method configuration as it appears in a published Web site. </div> |
