| <h1 class="topictitle1">Project Explorer view and Web development</h1> |
| <div><div class="section"><div class="p">The Project Explorer view provides the following notable features: <ul><li><img src="../images/nwin.gif" alt="For Windows"> You can drag and drop files from Windows<sup>®</sup> Explorer or the desktop into |
| the Navigator view.</li> |
| <li>View filtering is supported by selecting <span><b>Filters</b></span> from |
| the Navigator view <span><b>Menu</b></span> button. Resources |
| can be filtered by name, project type or content type. Files beginning with |
| a period are filtered out by default.</li> |
| <li>The status line shows the full path of the selected resource.</li> |
| <li>Dragging a .java file from the Navigator view into a JSP file will insert |
| a usebean tag, the same behavior that is exhibited when a .class file is dragged |
| into a JSP file.</li> |
| <li>Errors and warnings on resources (including Java™, HTML/JSP, and Links Builder errors |
| and warnings) are indicated with a red error <img src="../images/nshowerr.gif" alt="Error icon"> or yellow warning <img src="../images/nwarning.gif" alt="Warning icon"> next to the resource with the error, as well as |
| the parent containers up to the project. This applies for all project types, |
| not only Web projects.</li> |
| <li>Items available from the <span><b>New</b></span> cascading |
| menu in the project pop-up menu are context sensitive. All menus will have <span><b>Project</b></span> and <span><b>Other</b></span> options.</li> |
| </ul> |

| <div class="section"><h4 class="sectiontitle">Organization of the Project Explorer view</h4><p>The Project |
| Explorer view shows a custom view of all Web projects. The following are some |
| of the notable top-level objects that appear beneath the project node (based |
| on default folder names).</p> |
| <div class="p"><strong>Web content folder</strong> - This folder contains |
| items to be published to the server. By default, this folder will be named <strong>WebContent</strong> for |
| newly created static and dynamic Web projects. <div class="note"><span class="notetitle">Note:</span> You can change the name |
| in the creation wizard Web facet page.</div> |
| <ul><li><strong>META-INF</strong> - This directory contains the <span class="filepath">MANIFEST.MF</span> file, |
| which is used to map class paths for dependent JAR files that exist in other |
| projects in the same Enterprise Application project. An entry in this file |
| will update the run-time project class path and Java build settings to include the referenced |
| JAR files.</li> |
| </ul> |
| <ul><li><strong>WEB-INF</strong> - The directory where supporting Web resources for a Web |
| application are kept (for example: .xmi files, .xml files, and web.xml.) </li> |
