crash3903 Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 you can install a server on your windows machine - one i have used and is easy to use is xaamp - it is a an application that turns your local windows machine into a server capable of running php and mysql scripts - also there are built in tools for managing your database (PHPMyAdmin) plus a few other bits... use that to develop your store locally if that is what you want to do - and use an ftp program like dreamwever (very expensive though) to upload the files - you will need to make sure that your host supports osc - pm me if you want some help Regards Mark A Reynolds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
