 == Example HTML Page ==

 Here is a link to a working HTML page that is embedded within the HTMLGfx app in case the boinc_graphics.xml file is missing.

+== Debugging HTML Web Applications ==
+Debugging potential graphics applications should be as simple as copying init_data.xml, boinc_graphics.xml, graphics_status.xml, 
+and whatever application support files you'll need into a temporary directory and launching HTMLGfx with the '--debug' 
+command line parameter.
+
+All the files should appear in the same directory layout as they would be in when running under BOINC.
+
+Using the port number described in the window title launch your desired browser and use a URL like this:
+{{{
+http://localhost:<port Number>/<desired HTML page>
+}}}
+
+Your browser should be able to download the HTML file and related support files.  You should then be able
+to use your browsers built-in developer tools to figure out what went wrong.
