| <p>Web projects hold all of the Web resources that are created and used when | |
| developing your Web application. The first step to creating or importing a | |
| Web application is to create either a static or a dynamic Web project. Static | |
| Web projects are meant to contain only simple Web site resources, such as | |
| HTML files. Dynamic Web projects are used to structure Web applications that | |
| will use more complicated, dynamic Web technologies, such as JavaServer Pages | |
| files, and possibly data access resources.</p> | |
| <p>Though the Web project is structured on your file system in compliance | |
| with the J2EE Web application standard for deployment purposes, the Project | |
| Explorer view is designed to show the most convenient display of project resources | |
| for use while you are actually developing the Web application. When you are | |
| finished developing your Web application, you use the Web project to deploy | |
| the correct resources to the server. These resources will be packaged in a | |
| file called a Web archive, or WAR file.</p> | |
