You do not have to set up a computer system in order to follow along online with this tutorial. All the Z and I Emulator for Web screens that would be generated by the examples in this tutorial are shown as part of the tutorial itself.
However, you may wish to know how the computer system used in creating the examples used in this tutorial was configured:
- Operating system: Windows 2000 Service Pack 4
- Web server: Any compatible Web server, such as IBM HTTP Server 1.3.19
- Z and I Emulator for Web version: Version 1.0
- Install directory: c:\Program Files\HCL\ZIEForWeb
- Publish directory: c:\Program Files\HCL\ZIEForWeb\ZIEWeb
- Public name for publish directory: zieweb
- Browser: Internet Explorer 6.0.
The system was set up as follows:
- Install Windows 2000 and Service Pack 4 or greater.
- Update Internet Explorer to version 6.0 if necessary.
The Z and I Emulator for Web server was set up as follows:
- Install the Web server and activate it.
- Install Z and I Emulator for Web 1.0. For Win32 platforms this includes the Deployment Wizard.
- Verify that the Z and I Emulator for Web Service Manager is running.
The same system was used for all three of the program functions used in this tutorial:
- Running the Z and I Emulator for Web server.
- Running the Deployment Wizard.
- Running the browser as a Z and I Emulator for Web client.
To run the browser as a Z and I Emulator for Web client on the Z and I Emulator for Web server itself, start the Internet Explorer and enter a URL according to the following pattern:
http://localhost/zieweb/myfile.html
where
- localhost is the TCP/IP hostname or TCP/IP address of the Z and I Emulator for Web server.
- myfile.html
is the name of a main HTML output file created by the Deployment Wizard.
In this tutorial, the main HTML output file is standardsupplies.html, so the URL would be:
http://localhost/zie/standardsupplies.html
