Using the installer *may* lock you to a particular machine if it sets registry entries that the install later uses. That is why I suggested using the Zip version. You should be able to move the htdocs/ folder by simply changing the Apache "conf" file. But leaving it inside the installation tree allows relative addressing. Depending on where you move it, you may need to hard-code the path to htdocs/ which makes for a much less portable stick install. -- Neil Herber Corporate info at http://www.eton.ca/ _______________________________________________ pmwiki-devel mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-devel
