Basically what i want to do is put a website on CDR.
The problem is, is that my website is all done in PHP.
So I need some type of webserver install with php on it.
Is it possible to install Apahe/Php on a CD, that uses relative paths and not absolute paths?

Or is there a program that can go to a site, view the webpage and then download the source?

thanks

Well I think doing it that way would involve way to much work by the person trying to view your web page off the CD. What kind of content will you be using? With this information I can hopefully suggest other ways to do this.

I found a website ripper called WinHTTrack.
What you do is give it the URL and then rip away.
It in turn stores all the WebContent(as how a user would see it) onto your harddrive. This works just fine for all the javaScript and most of the PHP. I ended up tweaking some of the php code and now it does what i want it to do.

I am still looking for other options. For example: is there an offline browser for PHP stuff?[nbsp][nbsp]or anyother thoughts

thanks
