Thanks John - Sounds like I need to set aside some time to get Apache going. If I can get Apache working, then I won't need to upgrade to XP Pro as there is nothing else I need -- at least that I know of at the moment. Maybe this would be more of a permanent solution that I originally thought.
Thanks for the encouragement -- looks a good job for this weekend!

Janet I have apache on Window 98 and it works a dream. The caveat being I don't know how happy it is on later versions of windows. As far as you're concerned the only thing you need working straight away is server side includes. These may or may not be already enabled, but if not you can edit the httpd.conf file (You should be able to find in it via Start > Programs > Apache) to enable them. If you search Google for something like "enabling ssi on apache" you should get dozens of pages that'll show you how to make the changes you need to make. They are only one liners, really nothing to be frightened of :-) As I said in the last mail you can pick everything else up as you go along. There is stacks of stuff with apache, but if your not interested in using it you need never know about it. By the same token if there is something complex in the live server environment you want mimic locally, the odds are apache should be up to the job.
