| opens. In the <i>Overview</i> page of the server editor, under the <uicontrol>Publishing</uicontrol> settings, | |
| you are going to find the following settings:<ul> | |
| <li><uicontrol>Never publish automatically</uicontrol>: Specifies | |
| the workbench should never publish files to the server.</li> | |
| <li><uicontrol>Automatically publish when resources change</uicontrol>: | |
| Specifies that when a change is made to the files running on the server, | |
| the number of <i>seconds</i> specified in the <uicontrol>Publishing | |
| interval </uicontrol>control will need to pass before the workbench | |
| calls a publish to happen on the server. However, if you make a subsequent | |
| change to the files before this time interval has completed, the publish | |
| is delayed as the timer is reset. The workbench makes a publish to | |
| the server only after the full time interval has passed. If you set | |
| the publishing interval to 0 seconds, a change to the files running | |
| on the server should automatically request a publish command to occur.</li> | |
