Preview Tab
The preview tab shows the template as it will output with the current record (see "Loading data"
on page488), with the personalized content (see "Personalizing content" on page485).
Although it is possible to edit the template in Preview mode to a certain extent, it is
recommended to do all editing in the Design mode.
Live Tab (HTML context only)
The Live tab shows the result of the template as rendered by the Gecko rendering engine. It is a
good indication of how an HTML template would display in a visitor's browser, especially if they
are using FireFox (which uses the Gecko engine).
