    Use WAMP or XAMPP for Windows or MAMP for Mac. It's much easier than installing each seperately.

    XAMPP? What's the X stand for, XHTML?

    What do you mean by go online? Are you referring to making it accessible from the outside world or just locally. If the latter, simply point your browser to http://localhost/ and you should see your local site. If the first, you would need to use a service like http://www.dyndns.com/ so that others would be able to go to a domain that points to your computer.

    Hope this helps.

    once you set up the server, it is public to the world, meaning that anyone could type in the IP Address (eg 192.168.1.1) and if that was the IP of that server (computer) the person would be able to view the portions of it that were made public.

    in order to get your server so its more human readable, like www.dynamicdrive.com instead of (n.n.n.n) you would need to use work with a company to make that transition...
