Now that I have Uniform Server, I was excited at the prospect of being able to edit PHP code and see the parsed results by quickly clicking CTRL+B in EditPlus.

However, it doesn't work, because it doesn't default to localhost/phpfile.php

 

Anyone know of some way to configure EditPlus to get it to automatically goto localhost so I can see a preview of my parsed PHP content?

If not, how do most of you preview your PHP code. Any feedback is appreciated. Thanks.

They must have an Option's panel. Check there.

or just go to http://localhost/phpfile.php

Start EditPlus:

 

you have to add the webroot in

Tools

>

Preferences

> "

Tools

"

 

to "

Webserver Root Directory

", click "

Add

"

 

enter:

webserver IP or host name

:

localhost

web server root directory

:

w:\www

 

that reads as:

map any file edited in

w:\www\...

to

http://localhost/...

Ctrl+B opens your preview.

 

BTW. That applies also to TopStyle and others (usually called Mapping)
