I dont know whether to put this in the DreamWeaver mx forum or this one so i will start here. I use Macromedia DreamWeaver MX 2004 and when i go to preview my work in a browser the browser opens up goes to my virtual host on my Apache 2 web server and then shows nothing, simply a blank page. But if i click view > source in the browser it shows all my coding. I also havent set up my database yet, just my Server and, because i cant get phpMyAdmin to work (i do have a working MySQL) Has anyone ever had this problem or heard of it, please help
 
is apache configured correctly? if configged, have you restarted the apache server to have those changes take effect?

Is the dw reading the code from the virtual host and therefore executing the code or simply attempting to open up the local copy?

if you open the browser and type in htt;//localhost/path/to/file.php

does that give you the result you were looking for?

I wish my computer would do what I want it to do,
instead of what I tell it to do...
 
it is configured correctly, but to make sure i will check it again, the virtual host works fine when i go to it in the web browser, it is something with additional pages.
