You can use localhost. Bruce also mentioned setting up your own names for IP addresses - the file you need for this is found under %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\hosts 

Setting a limit of 100 threads is a good place to start. That will probably translate to about 1000 requests per second, and chances are your IO will be the limiting factor before you get to that many requests anyway. 

Bruce explained the basic structure of an HTML page. So there are controls (HTML for browses, forms etc which can be called as you would call a browse) and snippets of HTML or NetWebSource procedures which just dump in the requested HTML and can not be called directly by the user.  

Example of HTML you when you request a control:

Code Block
<body>
	<!-- Net:PageHeaderTag -->
	Control
	<!-- Net:PageFooterTag -->
</body>

The menu is added to the page header procedure as an extension. Want another menu? Add another extension.

Bruce explained the important differences in the ways you can navigate using the different menu options: Link, Content (using the Content div, which must be enabled in global settings) and Popup. 

Popups will give you a very Windowsy (Bruce actually compared it more to CPD) experience. Not search engine friendly, however.
