Hi, >Or should I just be looking somewhere else? Yes, if you're setting up a local development environment on a Mac, the painless solution is to install MAMP ("m" as in Mac). Everything installs into a single folder (easily deletable, too) without modifying any of the original versions that might have come with OSX. There's a free version and a paid pro version here: <http://.mamp.info> Hope this helps, L -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
