| <div><p>The Web development environment provides the tools you need to develop |
| Web applications as defined in the <cite>Sun Microsystems Java™ 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 Java servlets. |
| These resources, along with an XML deployment descriptor (and other <a href="cwebresources.html"> Web resources</a>, 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> |
