Web Required

I thought you could use Apache Offline so you could test your PHP
pages on your computer without having to upload them to your web
server, is this correct. If so how do you get Apache to do this. Thanx

Yes, you can use apache for testing php on your computer without
uploading them.
I use it apache fo it, so I'll describe how i have done it:
1. I downloaded the latest version of apache(2.0.46) from
http://httpd.apache.org.
2. installed it into "c:\server\apache" (can be anything).
3.Edited the config file to serv file from c:\server\wwwroot (see doc
from apache)
4.I downloaded php4.3.2 from php.net(php 5 unstable)
5.unziped it to "c:\server\php" and followd the instruction in
c:\server\php\install.
6. copied all my php scripts to c:\server\wwwroot and pionted mu
browser to http://127.0.0.1

If your on a linux/unix system do the same only change the path to
someting linux can handle e.g. /home/user/public_html

I posted a howto a couple of months back on setting up PHP with Apache
on W2K/XP. It is available at

Any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
