The locations of the files you will need to edit.[driveletter:]\xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf (only if there is a permissions issue)[driveletter:]\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.confC:\WINNT\system32\drivers\etc\hostsSee this for the official apache virtual host documentation if you get lost. I say that because every tutorial on the web told me to do that. I didn't in fact find it

I found a variety of syntax errors when debugging a PHP script lately. Since the PHP parser isn't the clearest when it comes to debugging (and these were terribly elusive) here are are some methods that I found to solve the problem.The line numbers associated with the errors were no help at all - the error just wasn't found on line 1. And then when the line number changed, it was not found on

When I started this blog a week or so ago, I didn't think the first few would be dedicated to Firefox features but I have to mention Quick Searches before letting go of the keywords tips.I was talking to Matt (Drupal enthusiast extraordinaire) about how I'd found what I thought was a more convenient way to search. I was both surprised and happy to be wrong again when he explained searching

I tried using FastDial for FireFox but it didn't do everything for me that I needed.Having each of my most used pages ready to click whenever I opened a new tab was hip but unfortunately it wasn't fast enough for me.

As I've found a new focus for the site, I'm going to be sharing the answers to the questions that have befuddled me during the course of my knowledge and technology work.All of the old blog posts have been deleted (they were largely useless anyway), and I'll be posting as regularly as I can with the answers I come up with about working in technical support and knowledge-work.I define knowledge
