support the HTML v3.2 syntax. You should test and debug your
application in the development environment before you use the test
environment. For help, see Chapter 2, “Developing and Testing Your
Application.”
Test
Use the test environment to simulate running the HTML application.
Copy your application and web pages to a web server, and then load a
web browser and the simulator on your PC. Using the web server, the
web browser, and the simulator, you can run your application. The
simulator contains a local dcBrowser gateway that runs on your PC,
and it simulates the dcBrowser gateway on the Intermec Application
Server or the software-only dcBrowser gateway. The simulator also
simulates the device screens so you can enter data and see how the
application responds. For help, see Chapter 2, “Developing and Testing
Your Application.”
