Hi all,
I'm about to load CI 1.7.2 on an XP Pro machine runnning Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.2.1
Please forgive me if these seem stupid questions.
Reading the instructions, I'm unsure of some things:
<quote>
CodeIgniter is installed in four steps:
1. Unzip the package.
2. Upload the CodeIgniter folders and files to your server. Normally the index.php file will be at your root.
3. Open the application/config/config.php file with a text editor and set your base URL. If you intend to use encryption or sessions, set your encryption key.
4. If you intend to use a database, open the application/config/database.php file with a text editor and set your database settings.

1. Should I unzip to a separate directory? And recopy the "blank" files when needed?
2. "index.php will be at your root" - document root of the server? Is that where I copy the contents of the zip file?
3. If I am currently working on a local server, should the base URL be "http://localhost"?
4. Is "application" a literal, or the name of the application I'd be developing?
Thanks!
Kevin
