| <p>The Web development environment provides the tools you need to develop | |
| Web applications as defined in the <cite>Sun Microsystems <tm tmclass="special" | |
| tmowner="Sun Microsystems, Inc." tmtype="tm" trademark="Java">Java</tm> Servlet | |
| 2.3 Specification</cite> and the <cite>Sun Microsystems JSP 1.2 Specification</cite>. | |
| Web applications can be simple (consisting of only static Web pages) or they | |
| can be more advanced and include JavaServer Pages (JSP) files and <tm tmclass="special" | |
| tmowner="Sun Microsystems, Inc." tmtype="tm" trademark="Java">Java</tm> servlets. | |
| These resources, along with an XML deployment descriptor (and other <xref | |
| href="cwebresources.dita" scope="peer"><desc></desc> Web resources</xref>, are contained | |
| within a Web project during development. When you are ready to publish the | |
| Web application to the Web, you deploy the Web project to the server in the | |
| form of a Web archive (WAR) file . The end user can then view the Web application | |
| as a Web site from a URL.</p> | |
