Sorry if these seem like silly questions. I've been playing with ABMaterial all morning and it looks like a really interesting alternative to web development. I have a few questions that I'm hoping someone can help with, the answers I think will be really helpful to new users.

1. I've compiled and tested the Demo app and connected using http://localhost:51042/demo and all runs great. If I then create a virtual directory on IIS, and copy the demo folder to the wwwroot directory, in theory I should be able to enter http://localhost/demo and everything should work the same. While the wait ring does appear, it doesn't get any further than this. What do I need to do to get the IIS instance version running. This is the same machine as my development machine.

2. Am I right in thinking the server is running the Java and serving HTML pages?

3. If 2, does this mean that data connectivity is relatively straightforward with the right provider library?

Many thanks in advance.
