:( Hello,
I have installed Complete PHP4 for macintosh 10.2.3. I am working in Dreamweaver MX, in the tutorials, it says "after installing your application server, create a root folder for it."

It goes into great detail where to install it on a windows system, but not a word about where to install it on a macintosh.

I have Apache2 and PHP4 both installed at /library.

Can someone help with this newbie and confusing question?

Thanks in advance to anyone who repsonds.

if it is only for yourself and testing locally you could just put it in your own home-dire, I dont know macosX but i assume they use standard unix dirs like /home/username, so you could make it /home/username/myapp or something like that..
