If I click on one of the navigation links, (in the new version) it takes me to the original website which is (was) uploaded to my ht docs folder.
I need to be able to check all the links work to the new version, as each album(folder/page) has to be re-made in order to show with the new logo.
As there are now 1106 photographs in the new version, it takes some considerable time to upload it all, and then take it all down, just to add or remove a space !
Thanks

I know each page/album is working ..... but I need to test the nav links html , to make sure they are correct for the new version, ... I have a suspicion that a couple of the new page titles , are slightly different (a lower dash or space) from the original site, which would make them incompatible with the html in the index.htm folder..... hence the need to test off line....

Quote from: shutter not at the moment, as the current htdocs folder is corrupted....
In what way is it corrupt. My own problem stemmed from a hidden .htaccess file. Once deleted no more problems.

Probably not the most "elegant" nor the most "efficient" ......... but it worked so I kept it.... !
the problem I have is with three "double name" folders/albums and the way they point to the name that is actually on the code for the page/album ,
If it doesn`t work, then I can "tinker" with it until it does...... but I need to be able to test the whole version, off line....

@cso
I tried apache when I first started the website 2 years ago, but as you said, it is a lot of hassle !

1. create a folder called 'nemosphotography'
2. set the output directory to C:\<full path to>nemosphotography/<album name (avoiding spaces)>
3. repeat stage 2 for each album using different album names.
4. For each of the albums set the uplink to the main page as .../index.html
5. The main index.html then will contain the links to all your albums using relatives ie <album name>/index.html.
This method will not allow cross album navigation but can be used off-line to check things are working. To allow cross album navigation then you would need to use frames or look at the jalbum encoding to create a relative path such as happens with $resPath.
