These must point to dir's in you root of your hosting space.

They are more than likely used through out the program itself.

If it is a pre made program then i assume the developers website has documentation or FAQ's to help you.

@novaphoenixApr 09.2006 — if your running a local webserver then you can simply use "http://localhost" for the $HOME_URL.

However, if the website you are running has its own virtual domain (if you dont know what this is, then just ignore it as it wont apply), then it will be the virtual domain name.

eg. if you go to the site by typing "http://myserver/" then the $HOME_URL will be "http://myserver" not "http://localhost".

Also, the other settings will be based on your localtion of those directories from the root folder.

eg. if you localhost points to c:/web and the templates directory is in c:/web/templates, then keep it as is. If however its in c:/web/myinstall/templates, then the $template_dir variable will need to be set to: $HOME_DIR."/myinstall/templates/"
