how do you develop?
I just recently set up php/mysql/apache on my computer.
Since ive started learning a little over a year ago I have always made the file locally, saved, uploaded to a remote server & then tested. Then if there's errors, make changes locally, reupload, retest.
Doing it locally without uploading is so much easier. I should've done this from the beginning.
Is developing & testing remotely an odd thing to do?

Set Search Time - A google chrome extension. When you search only results from the past year (or set time period) are displayed. Helps tremendously when using new technologies to avoid outdated results.

I develop locally with vhost and my host file to separate the projects.
It's something I don't encourage anyone to do on a shared server. I rather crash my local server than a shared server with hundreds of other users. The other day I crashed MySQL locally, did it a couple dozen times till I found the bug, bet that would've ticked off my shared hosting neighbors.Is developing & testing remotely an odd thing to do?

Indeed. Uploading files was like 80% of my time programming. Sheesh, i could've gotten so much more done.

My desktop is a windows machine. I ssh to a remote linux box (in my basement), where I code, and test my code.
I use a browser to open the page hosted on the linux box. So, its remote, but its kinda local too. Not sure, so I put Remote.
I can't stand cluttering my windows machine with a webserver, and php, and mysql, and and..

of course im running into a few problems like setting up my mail server and chmodding. it'd probably be best to develop on my bsd box
