4 When you deploy web pages to a production server, Dreamweaver automatically copies the pages, the proxy, and
any necessary libraries to the web server.
Note: If you develop the application with a proxy that is installed on a separate computer from the one where you
developed the pages, or if you use a site management tool that does not copy all of the related files to the server, you must
ensure that you deploy both the proxy and any dependent library files. Otherwise, your pages cannot communicate with
the web service application.

Adding custom server behaviors
About custom server behaviors
Dreamweaver comes with a set of built-in server behaviors that lets you easily add dynamic capabilities to a site. You
can extend the Dreamweaver functionality by creating server behaviors to suit your development needs, or by
obtaining server behaviors from the Dreamweaver Exchange website.
Before creating your own server behaviors, you should check the Dreamweaver Exchange website to see if another
party has already created a server behavior that supplies the functionality you’d like to add to your website. Often, a
third-party developer has created and tested a server behavior that will address your needs.
