PHP, IIS and HomeSite server mapping

Anon

I am blissfully wrapping up my first php database driven website while on vacation!!

YAY! I figured it out!

So, while experimenting with homesite, I found an option for mapping files through the local webserver (IIS in my case). Being able to browser PHPs output in HS would be WONDERFUL, but I can't get it to work.

When I try (with all server mapping options selected) I get a dialog asking if I want to save the file to disk or open it from its current location.

Any tips on how to resolve that?

thanks,
jpc

A Tip For Homesite Users
This is a little off topic, but is one of the nicest features I have seen. With Homesite (I use 4.0) from Allaire <http://allaire.com> you can map directories to URLs. Example. While in Homesite, select Options, Settings. Select the Browse tab. At the bottom of the dialog there is a section for server mappings. Select 'Add'. Type or browse to the path where your web files are (this is the same as the path in the Alias directive). Then enter the URL path for that mapping ('http://localhost/mysite/'). Now hit OK and OK again. Now when you click browse or launch external browsers from Homesite it will map it through Apache.
