localhost?

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone could help me.

Ive been scouring the web for any answer to what my problem is and to me, it seems simple, and im just stupid, but I can't find where my localhost folder is on my mac. Everytime I go to http://localhost/ I get the <h3>It Works!</h3> but cannot for the life of me find the actual folder where its located.

Im trying to use phpmyadmin and need to find where localhost is to use it.

Thanks very much in advance.

it's the "sites" folder under your user account

The Sites folder in your user directory can be accessed by going to http://localhost/~<username> (replace username with your user name). The one you're looking for is at /Library/WebServer/Documents.

OK so this is how ive installed phpmyadmin:

two_imac_2/Library/Webserver/Documents/phpmyadmin and typed in http://localhost/two_imac_2/phpmyadmin/ and this didnt work so I tried http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ and that didnt work either so I tried putting the phpmyadmin folder in two_imac_2/Sites/ and this didnt work with either of the above localhost addresses.

If im correct, I heard that apache is already installed on a mac automatically, is that right?

Ive also done the system preferences > Sharing > Web Server ticked.

Do I need anything else installed in order to do this?

Many thanks,

EDIT: Ok, I found my problem, I was using http://localhost/two_imac_2/phpmyadmin/ when I should have been using http://localhost/~two_imac_2/phpmyadmin/ but my problem now is that I dont get the same UI as most people using phpmyadmin, I get a parent directory. Can someone help me with whats gone wrong?
