Click Commerce Extranet development involves configuration and creating scripts, largely JavaScript, on objects. To test these debug statements are added which put messages in the WOMlog. Viewing these usually means opening the latest WOMlog file in the directory C:\Extranet\Logs and skimming to the tail. After a few complaints from a favorite developer I found the really neat utility TAIL4WIN http://tailforwin32.sourceforge.net Start it and open a read share into the Extranet\Log directory and a window will continuously show you the tail - bottom - of the log file. This saves a lot of time. Highly recommended.
