I have done the local webserver mappings as per instructions in the help.

So it works fine when you upload it to a web server running on your machine and preview it in a browser using localhost?

As long as the mapping in the options points to that same web server folder then your pages should preview in RapidPHP (or so I would have thought). Where is that default page on how to set up a web server sitting? Is it generated by RapidPHP or is it part of the web server you are using? Sorry to be ignorant with RapidPHP; I have lots of experience with running IIS and asp and previewing in WeBuilder but none using PHP so my ideas may be way off base - I only suggest it as you are obviously in a panic to get this resolved.

Cheers
