The Components page of the System Tree lists the components that are installed on your PC. There are several categories:
ActiveX Controls The registered components are self-categorizing. The categories you see depend on what is installed on your system. The categories of greatest interest are:
Web design-time control (DTC)
Controls that are safely scriptable
If a control does not identify itself as safely scriptable, this does not mean that it is unsafe.
Controls (all registered controls)
Plugins The plug-ins installed in the Netscape and Internet Explorer Plugins directories.
Java Applets and Java Beans The applets and JavaBeans that are in the class path.
EAServer Servers Lists the servers for which you have defined EAServer profiles. You can see the packages, components, and component methods available on accessible servers. You can insert the components on 4GL pages only.
Custom Tag Libraries Lists the custom tag libraries in the paths you specify on the JSP page of the System Options dialog box. To use the custom tag libraries, you must make sure that the classes of the libraries are available to the server where you deploy your JSP target. You can insert custom tag libraries on JSP target pages only.
Right-clicking anywhere in the Components page produces a pop-up menu with access to the System Options and the EAServer Profiles dialog box.
In Page view, components display as they would appear on the page, but they do not execute. To interact with components for testing, use Preview view or open a browser window.
