Hi Joe,

Can you serve an HTML page from the subfolder?

if the root of your server is //myServer (equating to 'C:/Program
> Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs')
you should put //myServer/sub1 into your browser address bar and this will
then call whatever is your defined default page , or add a specific page
name //myServer/sub1/mytest.php

You should also check that the document type settings in Apache that invoke
the PHP extensions may have to be enabled for additional directories - look
in the apache config file for php.

HTH
