A game I play online offers the option of downloading all the images used in the game onto your computer, and then loading them from your computer instead of the server, which both speeds up your playing experience and the server overall. However, I have not managed to get it to work with Google Chrome. I’m hoping that someone here knows of either a setting to try or some other way to fix it, or can maybe just explain to me how the process of loading off the local computer works so that I can go about figuring it out myself.

What’s an ideal server for hosting ajax/asp.net web applications?
The problem is that the response from the server is very slow compared to other websites, although on the development server it runs fast. So, why is the response so slow like that? Are there any missing requirements on the development server?

thanks in advance

I have a directory www.site.com/files

In that directory is the file index.php, how do I make Apache automatically open that file like it does with index.html.

I have php installed.

I’d like to be able to use PHP to design a website, but I don’t have nearly enough to start a web server. Is there any way I could download PHP just to work with it and then when I’m done, use another server to upload it?

I am trying to test some code locally and I need help getting a local mail server to test my PHP code that uses the mail();. If you know how to do this I would really appreciate the help! Thanks!

I have a form I’ve built using html but I have little scripting experience. I’m trying to find a simple solution for users to be able to submit form data without using an e-mail client. Then have that sent to a dedicated e-mail address for review.

Any help or links would be appreciated.

So I can edit and test-run a website without having to go on-line. Please understand, I’m from the Philippines. Our ISP’s are so inutile designing a website here is like digging a cave with a needle.

oracle, remote server

I want to run PHP on my computer, mostly just so I can test it and learn it in a hands-on way. I’m not planning on turning my computer into a server; I just need the practice so I can pursue web development as a career.
