Second TEST website

Hi ALL,
How can I setup ?? a second website for playing around and testing things I like to do.
I can setup a TEST page in my website that I already have, BUT when things go wrong I will probably loose everything.
I like to test some buttons, roll-overs, navigation bar, pictures in action, etc ...
So, how can I dot this?

I prefer to build each website on a separate domain file.
To create a new, blank one, drag your domain file from Home Folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb into the trash and launch iWeb to create a new one. Save this and either rename the Domain.sites2 file to something like Test.sites2 or put it in a separate folder.
After doing this, remember to retrieve your original Domain file from the trash.
To launch an individual site just double click its Domain file.
This method of creating a new Domain file is a preferable to duplicating your old one and deleting all the pages as it avoids the possibility of future Domain file corruption.
Keeping your test pages on a separate file avoids the possibility of polluting your main website files with the disasters of experimentation! It also makes it a lot faster to load and publish.

  • How can I test websites I'm making in for Internet Explorer

    Hi,
    Is there good way to test websites I'm making in Internet Explorer? I know about sites like http://ipinfo.info/netrenderer/ , but as far as I know, that only works when it's online and you give it the link. What about while you're still developing it and it's not online yet? I do have Windows on my iMac via Bootcamp, but I can't be switching back and forth 100 times a day as I look at it and come back and edit it! lol
    Is there any easy way? Or should I just buy some cheap PC?
    Thanks!

    I know VMware Fusion let's you run your Bootcamp partition as a virtual machine and I'm pretty sure that Parallels supports that also (have only used Fusion). With your bootcamp partition running as a virtual machine it runs side by side with Mac OS. You would set the virtual machine up to use either bridged (peer of Mac) or NAT (kind of hides behind Mac) networking.
    To make your life easier you would probably put an entry in your \Windows\System32\Drivers\etc\hosts file with your Mac's IP address and the name of site you're trying to connect to.
    I've been running Windows VMs for a little over 3 years and the whole setup works pretty great.

  • How do I Publish to a second new website to a Folder

    Hi
    How do I publish a second unique website in iWeb.
    When I have tried so far - it also publishes the first site as well
    Cheers

    Put your sites on separate domain files so that they load in iWeb and publish separately....

  • Second local website

    Okay,
    I did install Lion Server over my previous client-only Leopard MAC OSX.
    I finally have the initial website up and running (the default one). Now I would like to expermiment a bit more with a second website, so as not to disturb the default one. So I added all the "MoreTestingRequired.conf" file crap with the
         NameVirtualHost *:80
    line in it.
    Then I added a second (local) website and set its document root to
         DocumentRoot "/Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/marcus2"
    In that directory, I placed an index.php file, stopped the web service (thru the Server App) and switched it back on again.
    Then in Safari, I gave it's URL, http://marcus2.local".
    Nothing.
    Any clues anyone?

  • Trying to set up a joomla test website - can't get beyond database set up.

    Hi. I am new to Mac OSX server, and I purchased a mini with 10.6.3 server so that I could build and test some websites locally.
    I am trying to install Joomla, and i can not get past the database configuration page.
    I am new to Apache / MySQL / PHP / Unix etc... I used Navicat to "create" (I am also new to navicat) a database named Joomla. I also created a user in Navicat called testuser, and gave the user a password. I also THINK I gave that user all privledges. But when I select Next, the page does not give any warnings, it doesn't even seem to refresh, but I can't get anywhere beyond this. I am not even sure what logs to check for errors, or how to get beyond this point. Any advice? Did I not set something up that needs to be set up?

    HI franklyhollywood:
    Joomla is easy to set up (install) once Mysql and PHP is properly set up. CMS (Content Management
    System) websites are the way to go. I am migrating all my sites to CMS, either full CMS or Partial
    CMS. The Server Guys (and Girls) can help you get it set up properly. If you don't want the hassle
    of configuring MySql and PHP on your Mac, use the preconfigured MAMP setup:
    http://www.mamp.info/en/index.html
    I am only interested in the final product (the website), so I chose MAMP to handle the database and
    scripting language (PHP) chores. MAMP can be Installed, configured and up and running in minutes,
    leaving me free to develop and make ready my sites for uploading to their eventual home on my
    hosting provider's server.

  • Cannot test website on local server

    I have one website that I suddenly cannot test on my local

    Not without some information. What are your site definitions?
    What server
    model? Is the local server IIS? Apache? Something else? What
    error
    messages are you getting? Could this be a permissions
    problem? You said
    "suddenly" .. what if anything changed in your configuration?

  • Making my Mac Mini into a PC to test websites

    Hi,
    I have been Mac user all my computer-using life and haven't go a clue about the PC environment. I need to get my Mac Mini to think its a PC just so I can test the websites I am building.
    How do I get my Mac to work as a PC so I can test the websites I am designing?
    Which is better Parallels or Bootcamp?
    Is it a fairly painless operation?
    Do I need to but IE6/7 or is it shipped with the Windows OS?
    Any advice would be very welcome - Thank you!
    Little Miss Mac User
    MacMini   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   Web testing/ Windows / Parallels & Boot Camp / PC

    For web compatibility testing, BootCamp is the wrong choice, because you'd have to reboot (twice!) every time you switch between editing and testing.
    Parallels + Windows is a decent option, and very easy to do, but it's a fair pile of cash.
    A less expensive but slightly messier option is Crossover Mac. http://codeweavers.com/products/cxmac/
    And if you're willing to spend some time but no money, you could do Darwine + IE6 instead. http://macosxhints.com/article.php?story=2006060201470077

  • Can't test website

    i downloaded visual studio and made a website using an (unedited) template it worked once and then i tried it again and it said "unable to connect to the configured web development server"
    how do i fix it?
    thanks in advance

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in MSDN forum.
    Since this forum is discuss this VS test issue, so please tell me which kind of test you create in Visual Studio?
    Is it related to the coded UI test, web performance test and load test or unit test?
    If possible, I suggest you could share me more detailed message about this issue.
    In addition, as you said the error message:
    >> "unable to connect to the configured web development server"
    Where / When did you get the error message?
    If you get the error message when you are starting the web site application, i assume that the issue is related to the web site application itself. So please you try to post this issue directly to the ASP.NET forum:http://forums.asp.net/
    , you will get better support.
    Thanks for your understanding.

  • Testing website in Dreamweaver for compatibility in different browsers

    Hi,
    A while ago, I had read on my facebook wall (but can't find that comment anymore) that Dreamweaver had recently made an upgrade; we are now able test our website in Dreamweaver for compatibility in different browsers and that it also tells us what needs to be fixed for our site to work within certain browsers. Where do I go for that exactly?
    Thanks

    There is an extension for DW called browserlab I think. Seems slow to me but I havent used it much.
    browsershots.org is a good site where you can test your pages in most any browser ever invented. Its somewhat slow, depending on how many browsers you want to test, but I like it.

    And you may be doing what I do: Developing on a Macintosh computer running OS X. I do have an emulator for Linux, but not for Windows, so I cannot run IE—except I can.
    Here's how I do it.
    Use Virtual Box. You can set up installations of Windows to run the Three Big Browsers that you need to test on, like I have:
    I can run any of the three virtual machines and test whe I am doing in a Microsoft browser. I no longer support Internet Exploiter 6. My clients are  not interested in China.

  • Use Windows version to test website compatibility?

    Is it reasonable to use Safari for Windows (3.1) to test that my website is "compatible with Safari"?
    Are there known differences between the Mac and PC versions other than the fonts?
    Thanks a lot for your insights

  • Tools to test websites on older versions of safari / hardware

    Sorry if this appears elsewhere but did look to see if there was an answer and couldn't find one. We are having problems with our transactional website with older versions of Safari (OSX Tiger Safari version Safari  Version 4. 1. 3.  (4533.19.4 ) and leopard safari version Safari Version 5.0.6) on Pwer mac and Intel macs. Do you know if there are any enulation tools about so we can test these because we don't have the hardware / software to do it.

    Yes, we have a website which I want to support all flavours of OSX and Safari. We don't havea problem with later versions, but going back to Lion on Intel and power mac, users are experiencing problems. We cannot replicate the problems because we don't have the hardware or software versions to replicate, so was wondering if there were any tools out there that we could simulate those versions for testing / debugging.
    We could, as etresoft said, check the agent and advise that we don't support the version, but as a mac user myself, I have it when websites don't support Mac browsers, plus we have a large Mac using user base.

  • How can I create a second, different website?

    How would I go about creating a second, completely different website? I have my website for my business, but now I'd just like to put up a second website that just has photos from out vacation.
    IWeb seems to allow only one site, and only one site gets published, so it seems.
    I don't want it to be part of my business website.
    I have two different .mac accounts, if that helps.
    Thanks!

    Hi everybody, I see there are here some experts about iWeb
    let me ask you help to better use of iWEb and different Family accounts.
    I have my account and created 2 different account to really keep separate the web sites.
    I have my private site on http://web.me.com/walter.pavesi/HOMEPAGE_WP/ created with iWeb and also 2 different sites loaded as http://web.me.com/walter.pavesi/REFRATTARI/ and http://web.me.com/walter.pavesi/T30/. I loaded the sites using the way to move the domain files away from the correct library directory, make a new site, publish it and then go back to the original.
    Until here all works and I have no special questions but suggestions are really well accepted.
    Then I am thinking to publish the 2 sites on the Mobile Me account of the Family (that is http://web.me.com/refrattari/REFRATTARI/ and http://web.me.com/affitti.milano/T30/ on the existing family accounts [email protected] and [email protected]
    I tried to do this from my Master account walter.pavesi because I do not have on both Mac any USER ACCOUNT for the 2 above mentioned Family accounts. I did not found a way.
    Which could be the easiest: create 2 new accounts on a Mac will not increase the data on HD too much ? Is there a way to copy the Site Files from one MM account to another ???
    There will be a risk to demage the permissions or some other problem.
    Thanks for your opinions.
    Or should I put this question more under MM than here ??

  • Final cut prox crashes as soon as I click export.  It happens with every project, even small 10 second test videos

    FCPx crashes as soon as I click export movie.  It happens with every project.  It happens even on a small 10 sec test video.  I have been using FCPx for over a year with no problems, but today this is happening.  I am suspecting a virus or something.  I have done nothing new to change any settings.  Should I uninstall and re-install?

    Hi there,
    First off, the point of converting is to make your rendering times nonexistent, not longer.  Make sure you're converting to match your sequence settings exactly.
    You might try basic troubleshooting procedure described here:
    http://fcpbook.com/Misc1.html
    If it happens again you should remove all components of the application using the free FCS Remover and reinstall.
