I believe it best to play with your code and preview it only on your local machine, and then when you are satisfied transfer the code to the server to have the changes be live on the web.

I find it easier, for me to test in different browsers this way. With a complex site I also find it easier to work that way and then once I am ready, I will publish it to the real site. But, it is just a personal choice.

5,571 PointsWell you can push the code to the server whenever you would like I would assume but if new requirements came up then I would make sure those are satisfied before pushing to the server for the site to be live.
