Folks:
My response to Shayne was a delayed response from a couple days ago, since
I was caught up in tracking the storm and watching NO via a weblink.
DAMHIK is a term obviously unique to the newsgroup I hang out on:
rec.woodworking. Some of their terms include: DAMHIK = "Don't ask me how I
know."; DAGS= "Do a Google search."; SWMBO = "She who must be obeyed
(wife)." ; and BORG = "Big Orange Retail Giant (Home Depot)" which will
assimilate all retail competition.
Shayne, I'm no PHP guy, but I did develop several Intranet sites using ASP
3.0 and MS IIS. IIS lets you set up virtual sites with just a point and
right click procedure. I was easily able to store my various sites all over
the place on my test server and then upload them correctly to different
places on the live servers. That said, Apache is more obtuse for this
procedure. You can change the root by modifying httpd.conf in the conf
directory under Apache. They say you can also setup virtual sites with
this file, but that seems to be what I was talking about in the last email
where a hosting service will have multiple websites running off the same IP
and server, differentiated by obviously name. I have kept my current
projects under the htdocs folder and sometimes in that directly. One of the
quirky things about PHP running at least on the test server is that without
PHP running correctly some of the script will run if it is html-like
making you think it is a programming error when in fact PHP is not
processing the page. Very frustrating.
