Weird?

Post by s.dot »

I'm developing a site on my computer. I just registered a domain name for it and pointed it to my IP address. What's weird is when I type the domain name into my browser, it opens up a folder (in a separate window) to my apache document root. :lol:

Maybe it's because the dns hasn't propagated yet? I don't know, but it's weird. And funny.
