How do I test the changes that I have made in templates in my computer?

[beaddirectory]

i will be making template for indexu on my own ( i know html, css but no php).....but how may i test my changes....since i need to test the color settings and everying in minutes to minutes..... when i open the themse/kosmos/index.html in my computer it doesn't have the actual look.... so how do i test in my computer the front-page of my website as a whole....

and..

as i'll be creating a new template for my own do i need to change all the kosomos html files in the new designs....?? or is there any shorcut

The easiest way is by installing indexu in your pc (with php+mysql installed too).

If you're planning doing so, then we'd suggest to use xampp (apache friends - xampp) for quick php+mysql installation.

Hi! Dody,

I downloaded the software as you said. But is there a way to CHMOD files and folders in WinXP. Since without chmod I'm uable to setup the Indexu in my pc. A reply will be appreciated.

So you do not need to chmod the files.
