Stupid Ques.. using DW 8, XP and ASP on localhost

[SmokeyJoe]

Newbie to DW. Have tried to set up a site for a small program I want to run only on my home computer for personal use. Have installed MySQL and built the tables I need.

Can't seem to get DW set up right to allow me to view the pages on the browser using localhost and have the files in C:\\inetpub\

http://wwwroot\mysite\.

I am aware it is something very simple.

Thanks for any help

Smokey Joe

Have you set IIS to process ASP pages?

Thanks for the reply, I think the answer is "Yes".

The Personal Web Manager dialog box shows "Web Publishing is on" and home directory is "C:\inetpub\

http://wwwroot\".

The advanced web options are: "Default.htm,Default.asp,iisstart.asp"

The iisdocs.htm properties dialog box shows "X-Powered_By: ASP.Net"
