Best way to show client the pre-launch site online - Macromedia Dreamweaver

Go with Mad Dog's plan. It's what we do. As long as the public can't get to it and it's not getting spidered this is a good procedure.

I see what your saying...I like to go live so I can see the actual product.
If it is a new URL, no one is going to find it anyway, if there is any
concern about a premature viewing, I just change the name to something that
no one would get.
