Previewing a New Site

For a new site, the DNS information for the site may not have had enough time to resolve and as a result the site may not be accessible from the Internet; however, you can still preview the Web page content and scripts of the site by using the URL's given below.

Note: Once the DNS information for the new site resolves, you can go directly to the actual site by entering the URL http://<domain_name> in the Address field of your Internet browser.
