Re: [PHP] Re: [Q] How to setup Dreamweaver so that PHP scripts are executed?
And if you want to be really extreme, you can edit httpd.conf to use virtual hosting and recognize each of the sites you have as individual web servers. Then, edit your hosts file to match the domains.. say I am working on my own web site, oldirtyhaddad.com (shameless plug). I have set up my hosts file to recognize oldirtyhaddad and it gets served up locally. I have one of these for each of the 20 sites that I maintain. I also have this set up for phpMyAdmin. (accessed by typing dbadmin). Jon Chris Martin wrote: Michael T.

Thanks to both of you, but it is still not working. I've configured the site (both local and testing) correctly, but what gets passed to IExplore is the URL below: C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs\northwest_steelheader\rivers\northwest_rivers.htm http://localhost/northwest_steelheader/ does not get passed. I can't help but think that I'm not configuring the form action= correctly. Cheers, Michael Michael T.

Cross-posted to the DreamWeaver news group -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php Your action attribute looks okay but the url which the browser is getting isn't the url in the action for the form (C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs\northwest_steelheader\rivers\northwest_rivers.htm) your browser should be getting update_river_measurements.php. Make sure all of the files are in the same directory/folder or at least make sure the appropriate navigation is added to the url (e.g. ../update_river_measurements.php). Or maybe, put everything in the same directory and try it that way as a means of narrowing down where the problem is. -- Regards, David GetAnyIdeas Web Design [EMAIL PROTECTED] P. 416.452.9410 F. 416.570.4529 -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
