Put a symlink from your homespace to that location (this is a shortcut for your editing purposes, files are web served directly from Apache's usual location for public files). It's quite practical for multi-users, if they have their own sub-directories in /var/www/html. Or you change the group ownership, and add appropriate users to that web-authoring group. -- (This computer runs FC7, my others run FC4, FC5 & FC6, in case that's important to the thread.)
