Hi,
I hve downloaded the php forum software on my pc. I can't upload it on my server now for some reasons. I will upload it later. Is their any way to check it on my computer. When I try to open the index page it is not opening correctly because browsers not open php files offline. How can I test it. Is there any software or method you know. Please do tell me.
Thanks.
