Requirements for displaying live data
To view live data in Design view, you must do the following:
Define a folder to process dynamic pages.
When
you enable Live Data, a temporary copy of the open document is sent to
the folder for processing. The resulting page is returned and displayed
in Design view, and the temporary copy on the server is deleted.
If
the page displays an error message when you enable Live Data, make
sure the URL prefix in the Site Definition dialog box is correct.
Copy related files (if any) to the folder.
Provide the page with any parameters a user would normally
provide.
If you have difficulty getting Live Data view to
work, see Troubleshooting Live Data view.
