[QUOTE="vtupser, post: 96939"] You will need to use a server side scripting code like PHP or ASP (PHP is what you should use if you use a Mac, ASP servers are only on Windows based machines). You already have Apache installed on your computer as your server, but will need to dl a program to help you access it. Go to [url]http://www.entropy.ch/software/macosx/php/[/url] and download PHP 5 for Mac OSX. Run the installer and everything sould be set. You will need to save your files in your "sites" folder on your Mac. To access these files in a web browser, you will need to turn file or web sharing on in your system preferences. Then you can access those files by typing in your browser nameofcomputer.local/~youruseraccountname/nameoffolder That simple. Of course you need to know PHP to make anything dynamic, but you can still use HTML and your server to view stuff. [/QUOTE]
