localhost

[harlequeen]

I am trying for the first time to use server side scripting and set up the site info to include that. Now, however, I don't know what I should put into the box which asks where I want the testing to be done from?

http://localhost/

As far as I know IIS in enabled on my machine and if I just test with only the localhost in, I get a positive message, but when I go and view in browser I get an error which says the page cannot be found.

Any help would be appreciated

can u manually reach

http://localhost/mypage.asp

?
try

http://machine_name/mypage.asp

eg.

http://joespc/

vs.

http://localhost

you might also consider using your LAN IP if your machine is on static IP
eg.

http://192.168.1.33

HTH
ALl the best!
