Local server problem with 2.7

Hi there,

I’m getting a ‘missing temporary directory’ error when trying to upload images to blog posts.

I had a look on Google and it appears that in a hosted situaton I would contact the hosting provider, however, I’m running my blog through XAMPP while I’m developing it.

As well as this, I intend to have a Jquery S3Slider either in the same div as the post loop, or just below the header before the posts/sidebar. While the script appears to run ok, and the animation shows, the images dont. I know you need to use absolute links to images but how is this done on a localhost?

Many thanks
