This is an Apache configuration issue. You can set up multiple IP-based Virtual Hosts with different document roots on a Windoze box. In your C:\WINDOWS\HOSTS file, set up some IP addresses: localhost 127.0.0.1 myserver 127.0.0.2 etc... In your Apache httpd.conf file: <VirtualHost 127.0.0.1> DocumentRoot "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache/htdocs/public" ServerName localhost </VirtualHost> <VirtualHost 127.0.0.2> DocumentRoot "c:\php\scripts" ServerName myserver ServerAlias scripts </VirtualHost> For more info, RTFM for Apache. Good luck.
