Testing forms on a mac

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Feb 28.2008

I have recently gone over to using a mac for all my work & use VMWare Fusion to test pages in Internet Explorer, just to see they are being built in the way I intend…

My problem is, I can’t seem to test my forms on my localhost & have to upload to a server to check them.

I am using php5, Leopard 10.5.2 & DWCS3. I used to be able to use the sendmail function under Windows on my localhost but can’t get this working on OSX.

Is there a way to test my forms locally please?

@ZnupiFeb 28.2008 — Well, localhost on your mac and localhost on your windows virtual machine are two different things. Maybe that is your problem?

@SiriunsonauthorFeb 28.2008 — I'm not trying to test my forms through my virtual machine though - only preview them at the building stage. I test my pages on my mac localhost, hitting opt+F12 regularly. It is through my mac localhost that I would like to test sendmail if possible.

Success!
