Installing a web server>

DHTMLX requires the application be used on a web server to allow all functionality to work. There are several preconfigured web server packages available for downloading on the Internet.

One of the options for Windows is WampServer. It is available at http://www.wampserver.com. For Mac users, one of the popular web server packages is MAMP. It is available at http://www.mamp.info.

Each of these websites provides instructions on using their packages.

Once you have a web server running, you must locate a directory accessible through the web server where you would like to create the application. The examples in this book will be using the root of an installed web server as the application directory and accessing the application at http://localhost/. The book will also refer to the root as the application directory.
