Use the Pending Items Preview mode to preview items that are pending approval directly on the page. Both users who submit items for approval and those that are approvers of items can use this mode. Users can access this mode when viewing approval notifications in the My Notifications portlet by clicking the page link for the item, or by clicking Pending Items: Preview when editing a page.
From this mode, you can:
    If you are an item submitter or approver, view a new or updated item 
    that is pending approval. 
 
    appears next to updated items that are pending approval. 
 
    appears next to new items that are pending approval.
    If you are an approver, approve or reject an item by clicking its 
    approval action icon, 
.
     This takes you to the Approval Notification Details page from which 
    you can approve or reject the item.
    If you are the page or content manager (with the Manage
     or Manage Content privilege on the page), or page group 
    administrator, move a pending item to the next approver (for example, 
    if an approver is not available), even if you are not among the list 
    of approvers. Click the item's approval action icon, 
.
     This takes you to the Approval Notification Details page from which 
    you can approve (or reject an item). If you approve the item, the 
    pending item moves to the next approver in the routing list (or is 
    approved, if there are no additional approvers).
    If you are an item submitter, edit a rejected item. Click 
 
    next to the rejected item. After you edit the item, it will be 
    resubmitted for approval.

Note: You can only see the links for actions that you are authorized to perform. If you do not see a particular link, you do not have the page group or page privileges to perform that action.
From this mode, you can also access the other editing views and perform editing functions on the page.
