Re: Developing PHP locally

Yes- if you declare a testing server in the site definition, dreamweaver
changes the way it does F12 Preview in Browser.
Instead of sending the code to the browser, dw using the info entered about
the Testing server to send the relevant files to the proper location
(either a locally installed testing server folder or even a remote ftp
location, you can use your remote host or a subdomain of the site as the
testing server. There's a lag while the files get transferred though)
[/q]
So is it OK to actually have my working DW folders be the same ones that my
local web server uses? In other words, no transfer to the testing server would
be required because the files would already be there. This would work out well
for the way I do my work, but would it confuse DW at all?
It sounds from your reply like DW wants to transfer the files from my working
site directories to another directory on my PC where the web server operates.
Or maybe I just have to try all of this and see what happens...
