i have just installed XAMMP (win32 version) onto a spare computer just to see if i could get my own home web server going. the install went fine and i managed to get all the of components installed.

but, when i go to http://localhost/ it directs me to the administrator page (http://localhost/xampp/) and not to my htdocs folder where all my files are stored.

when i type in http://localhost/index.html this will take me to the page i want, but i want to be able to just type in localhost or the IP address of the computer to access the page!

how is there a way of doing this, or am I just have to keep entering the page name after localhost each time

thanks for your help
