Setting up PHP to work with Dreamweaver 8

[loopy]

i've downloaded the XAMPP program, managed to get MySQL working but I can't seem to get PHP to work. this is what i've done:

i've setup a folder called teenie under C:\xampp\teenie\ as the Remote Folder using Local/Network access

i've also setup a folder called teenie under c:\xampp\ as the Testing Server via Local/Network access using Server Model PHP MySQL

My URL prefix says: http://localhost/


If i now create new PHP file, enter some PHP code, then view it in a browser I get an error saying "Object not found! The requested URL was not found on this server"


Can anyone help?

I don't think you stick files in that directory, it's something like httpdocs (been a while since I used it so can't remember).

If you move them to the correct dir it should work ok

Without trying to offend - why would you call a folder teenie?

 

[loopy]

i thought it might be the htdocs directory. so does the remote server and testing server need to be in the same directory? and if i put teenie is in my htdocs directory, would the site need to point to c:\xampp\htdocs\teenie\ and they URL will need to be which?

that's what the website is called or will be called. it's going to be a new clothing brand called teenie
