Platform specific Home pages
The Home Page of the HM4Web project defines the first page that is shown in the browser of each platform type and
defines the starting point for your web project. Pages that can be accessed from home page depend on the how other pages
are linked in the project.
For example, if you have designed a set of pages for a phone platform, set as a Home Page a page appropriately sized for a
mobile phone display. Then include in this page only links to other phone pages: the user will only access phone pages
when browsing the HM4Web project from a phone.
Testing the Web project
You can test your HM4Web project using the online simulator opening a standalone web page directly from a browser.
Testing with the online simulator
HMWIN Studio includes an web server in the online simulator. You can start the simulator and access your HM4Web
project from a web browser. The pages will be served from the simulator.
1. Create your project (see "Generating page for Web access" on page404).
2. On the Run file, choose Start Simulator: the project will start running in a separate window.
3. Open a web browser (see "Supported platforms and browsers " on page404 for a list of browser compatible with
HM4Web).
4. Enter the following address: http://localhost:81: this tells the web browser to read the web pages from the local
computer and use port 81, used by default by the online simulator in HM4Web.
5. Test your project in the browser.
Important: If you make any changes to the project pages in HMWIN Studio you must stop and restart
the simulator.
