fortunately I have found a solution I know most of you have known this but just to share.
it is to type the source computer's IP on the client Computer's browser and than the localhost,port number followed by a colon i-e if ur Ip on your local network is 192.143.1.4 and the port is 80(which is the normal port of localhost) you shoud type
http://192.143.1.4:80/index.php
and you can use your local host as a web server for your local network.
