Configuring web server for asp using windows xp??
Hello friend,
To set up a webserver for running ASP on winXP, you can just use the windows XP disc, then install IIS.
Once done, u can go to IIS Manager to configure something:
****** Configure webroot ******:
by default, webroot will be in c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\, u just copy *.asp file to the folder, then it can be run. But, u should set webroot into a folder on D drive, ex: d:\mysites. To do that, u go to: Websites->Default Web Site; right-click-> properties->Home Directory -> Browse; then select the folder d:\mysites.
From now on, u can copy ur asp files into the folder, then just use IE to access pages, ex: http://localhost/mypage.asp
Anythings else, just leave me a message. I have much experience of ASP programming. I can help u anything on it.

Don't think you can do it on XP Home. I think that maybe if you install the Express version of Microsoft's development studio it will give you a testing server for XP Pro. See http://www.microsoft.com/express/vwd/
