Hi,
I want to be able to develop locally on localhost. I originally followed the setup instructions creating it for localhost which has worked with no problems by creating the default 'wordpress' folder as install told me to.
How would i go about creating another instance or can you keep using the same install of 'wordpress'.
So i have
c:\xampp\worpress\wp-content etc etc
I want to have c:\xampp\pbwebdesign\blog\wp-content etc etc
How would i do this? Its just because i want to be testing implementing a blog into my existing website design and taking the wordpress posts/comments etc into my div container and having own original header and footer etc.
Thanks
Install another copy of WordPress in pbwebdesign\blog.

Dont supose you know where i would start now to keep my existing site design to the blog as well and not use a template? Implement the blog INTO my current css/xhtml website?

Thanks for the link, im not sure if this is what im after, please correct me if im wrong and the guide covers it
I have a website here > http://www.pbwebdesign-warrington.co.uk/ i want to keep this design BUT add the content area of the blog i have created > http://www.pbwebdesign-warrington.co.uk/blog into my original content area of my site and remove the styles of the header/footer and background of the blog theme.
So the blog comments/categories etc will be embedded into my website http://www.pbwebdesign-warrington.co.uk/ and not using the blog template theme
If you had your own design that you wanted to appear at /blog, instead of the current theme, you could follow the above guide to integrate WordPress with that design.
