Guestbook testing questions

[M. Lawson]

Just had 2 quick questions -- Is it possible to test a guestbook offline
(without publishing it) to see if it works?

I have a site that I'm working on w/ FP2002 and have WinXP at home.
It's not published yet, but I'd like to see if it works.

Secondly:

I tried publishing it online via Tripod (which has FP server extensions
enabled) and it didn't work. Gave me a file not found error. Doesn't
it make this file (the guestbook) when it's first accessed?

Thanks!

Yes, if you are running Windows 2000 Pro or Windows XP Pro with IIS and the FP extensions installed.

No - the FP guest book must be published to a server with FP server
extensions.....
