How do i set up sites 10.8.5

ok i downloaded a pref.pane named websharing since websharing option in the sharing panel does not exist anymore …
right?
i type localhost in safari and it shows it works
i tried to modify the file ./library/webserver/documents/index.html.en and after some permission issues i was able to save and when i typed localhost or 127.x.x.x. sth it showed the modified text but … it was html i copy/pasted and it just showed text
i tried to access 127.x.x.x/~myusername it says i don't have permission
i was hoping i could see the contents of the index.html in the SITES folder of my HomeFolder …
why doesn't it work?
me home folder permissions and sites folder permission are read only for ''everyone'' read and write for me .
maybe it has sth to do with execute ( x ) ?
do i have to type a command in the terminal like chmod 777 sites ?
if you need it …
-iMac:~ myname$ ls -l

Contact the manufacturer for assistance since it's their product & not Apple's.

How do I set up a root directory for a web site

So this is probably a naive newbie question.
I have been creating websites driven by php/mysql on my mac for years using the previous the web preference pane to run Apache and since that went away using XAMPP to provide Apache/php/mysql functionality on localhost.
I decided to download OSX server and try to use that. Figured might as well go native MAC.
I am baffled.
The manual says to set up a web site in Server by working through the Websites Services interface. I did that and pointed the setup at the directory where I have all of my web site files. I now have no idea how to access that page from my local machine.
I have tried:
http://localhost/myURL
http://localhost/~username/Sites/[root file directory] -- where the files are stored
I also tried some typical localhost ip address
None access my site.
How do I access my site over my local netework?
I feel like just dumping server.app and stting things up through the terminal.
Thanks,
--Kenoli

How familiar are you with the bash command line and with Apache, and how much do you want to learn about Apache and related topics? (If you're not already, then I'd encourage learning about this material, as this knowledge is very useful for maintaining and updating sites, and knowledge of correctly securing files and directories is critical to building and maintaining secure web sites — all of managing and running and updating a web server builds on these foundations. There are various good books and web sites on Apache, and the Apache web site has various materials available, if you don't already have something.)
The localhost host name and the 127.0.0.1 IPv4 address are both synonyms for the "me" host. It's the name and the address that always gets you to the current host.
With http://localhost/ or http://127.0.0.1 specification, what you enter at the URL address bar is relative to the root directory specified for the default web server, and will default to the index.html or index.php page or whatever the default web site is configured to use. With OS X Server, this root directory is configured via Server.app. To use Server.app, launch it, connect to the server, select Websites from the left navigation, and you (by default) will see a default site and a secure site. Select the default site. Select the edit button below the site to edit (and to view) the configuration.
With the details of the default site visible, you will see the path to the default web directory. This path to the default web directory is where the files for the default web sever location reside.
The default path to the default web site is /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/Default
If you place foo.html in that directory (or whatever the defailt web site is using), you can view it via your web browser and the URLs:
http://127.0.0.1/foo.html
http://localhost/foo.html
To get to the default web site using the GUI, launch Finder and select Go To Folder, and enter that string into the box. You will now get a GUI view of that folder. (I'd strongly recommend using the command line here, and not the GUI. To get to the directory from the command line and then list the files present, launch Terminal.app from Applications > Utilities folder and issue the following commands:
cd /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/Default
ls
If you want to test something in the browser, you can use the file:///path-to-file-to-test mechanism. Most web browsers will allow you to render local files directly using file and three slashes.
You will need to ensure the executable files (scripts) are marked as executable to OS X, using a Terminal.app command such as the following:
chmod o+x path-to-file
Enabling ~/user per-user sites involves directly editing the configuration file, as Apple has disabled that by default.
There's an Apache tutorial with an overview of what's involved with enabling per-user directories here, and there's what's been listed in my earlier replies and links. With OS X Server Mavericks, the default configuration file for Apache is located in the Library folder, and can be viewed with the following Terminal.app command:
cat /library/server/web/config/apache2/httpd_server_app.conf
This file is the OS X Server equivalent of the oft-cited httpd.conf file you'll see listed in various documentation.
If you want to enable the per-user directories or tweak other Apache settings, then shut down Apache from Server.app or from the command line, and then edit the configuration file with nano or some other command-line editor using a command similar to this:
sudo nano /library/server/web/config/apache2/httpd_server_app.conf
you'll end up finding and uncommenting (removing the #) from the following two lines:
#LoadModule apple_userdir_module ${SERVER_INSTALL_PATH_PREFIX}/usr/libexec/apache2/mod_userdir_apple.so
#Include /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-userdir.conf
If you have specific questions about this, then I and others here can answer those. If you don't understand something, then asking a question about that can help you learn, and can help me understand what it is that I'm posting in my replies here that's confusing you. There are also various resources available for learning Apache, and I'd encourage spending a little time with those if you've not already done so or feeling at all unsure about how that tool works; I end up re-re-reviewing the Apache docs fairly regularly.

How do I set up Work in Progress Folder on site

How do I set up Work in Progress Folder on a site in
dreamweaver? I would like to be able to put jpegs, gifs, and html
files up in a folder that only my client can access before posting
to the "live" site. I was hoping it would be possible to allow him
to access several html files from a single folder (sort of like a
site map or contents of the folder).
Thank you.

"Set Web Site Rule" window is annoying. how do i shut off this function it poped up more than a dozen times to connect to even this web site? then i had to click it another dozen plus times to get this site open !!!! ???

when ever i put in an address or click on a site a "Set Web Site Rule" window pops up asking if i want Firefox exe to allow some function to occur. it does not seem to be security related but rather simple functions. Step 1, step 2 , blah blah . "Set Web Site Rule" window is annoying. how do i shut off this function it popped up more than a dozen times to connect to even this web site? then i had to click it another dozen plus times to get the next mozilla site open !!!! ??? if firefox does not know what it is doing how can i??????
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened
== i am just setting up this pc how ever i down loaded the most recent version 3.6.3

by submiter - self solved: (thanks for the psychic help)
seems the problem was not with Firefox itself. Rather it seemed to have been an ad-blocker program called "WebMonitor" . i began by deleting Firefox and then opened Explorer (which i seldom do) and the same thing began to happen with MSN. So i
began deleting anti-virus programs till i came to the above mentioned freeware ad blocker "WebMonitor". it is a shame because i uised to have a program that blocked all ads on a web site which was such a relief to me.

David's book is a good place to start. This is really far more involved that can be covered in this forum. You'll need to get familiar with a database, most likely MySQL, PHP, how to send requests tot he database - queries - and most likely maintain a state with Sessions. As you can see, it's a bit involved. The good news is this skills you'll acquire to do this will go a long way! It will cover all the basic requirements of web application development.

How to set Top Sites as homepage in Safari 6?

I'm unable to set Top Sites as my homepage in Safari 6 on Mountain Lion.

Navigate to the topsite you want to set as your home page then go to Safari > Preferernces > General.
Click: Set to Current Page
You can open new windows and tabs in Top Sites from the pop up menus.
If you have trouble with that, quit Safari then open the Finder.
From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type or copy / paste: ~/Library/Safari
Click Go then move the TopSites.plist file from the Safari folder to the Trash.
Relaunch Safari.

In Internet Explorer I can set Trusted Sites, how do I do this in Firefox?

MS Internet Explorer browser, in the security settings, has the ability to set "Trusted Sites". Sites that I trust that will not harm my computer and are thus allowed to open pop-ups and other features that are needed to interact with the website.
I am unable to get data feeds when using Firefox and the help desk supporting my application requested me to add their url's as Trusted Sites in my browser. I am able to do this with the MS Browser but I cannot find an equivalent function in Firefox.

There is actually a setting in the prefs.js file that you can set that will add "trusted sites" to Firefox. Open a windows explorer window, browse to your local appdata directory via "%APPDATA%\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles". There you should find a subfolder with a ".default" title. Look inside for a "prefs.js" file.
In prefs.js, look for this line:
user_pref("network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris"); then simply add the site you want to trust. i.e.
user_pref("network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris", "http://www.msn.com");
Open Firefox and viola, trusted site is good to go.
You can also do this in Firefox. Type about:config in the address bar, tell it "I'll be careful, I promise", then look for the entry:
network.automatic-ntlm-auth.trusted-uris
Double click it and then add your site using http://<site url here>

How do I set up a Web-based access page to allow access to the internet through my router?

My wireless router is a WRT54G. I own/manage several condos in a building and guests change all the time. I want to set up a network with internet access similar to hotels and airports where access is granted after being directed to a web page and entering a password. How do I set this up? (I have several domains/websites if this is needed.)

Not with standard firmware and no other equipment.
If you want standard firmware and warranty and service you have to look at more expensive equipment.
For some WRT54G you can flash 3rd party firmware which opens up the Linux on the router. See the wikipedia article for "WRT54G" for a start. Also check out dd-wrt. Some people there use the WRT in hotspot setups with dd-wrt. They should be able to point you into the right direction.
Otherwise, what you are able to do with the WRT and standard firmware is radius authentication with WPA or WEP (called WPA Enterprise or similar...). This however, does not redirect you to access through a web site. You have to enter the username and password when you connect wireless to the router on your computer. If it matches you get access. Again: there is no web site involved here and if you don't know the username/password you cannot access anything not even an internal, free homepage. This also does not work for wired access to the router.
