HTML5 Project Properties Dialog Box: Sources

You open the HTML5 Project Properties dialog box by right-clicking any HTML5 project node in the Projects window and choosing Properties. The Sources page lets you set the locations for the site root and the folder for tests.

You can modify the following properties in the Sources page of the dialog box.

Project Folder. (read-only) The folder on your local system that contains the project metadata and usually the site root.
Site Root Folder. The contents of this folder will be available through the web server on the production site. This folder typically contains the index.html file.
Unit Tests Folder. The folder in the project that contains the unit tests. This folder is the default location for JavaScript unit test files when you run tests with the JS Test Driver server.
Config Folder. The folder in the project that contains configuration files for the project. For example, the configuration file for the JS Test Driver server should be located in this folder.
Encoding: Choose the character encoding that you want the IDE to apply when it saves and displays project source files.
The project character encoding determines how the IDE interprets characters in your source files. The IDE displays and saves any new files you create using the encoding set by the project in which they reside. The default character encoding used with projects is UTF-8. Use the Encoding drop-down to change the character encoding used with the project.

For more information on Project encoding, see About Project Encodings.
