WeBuilder v. 9.3.0.101
Background.
I had xampp and WeBuilder working fine together along with the Mapping feature for a number of weeks. Then I was having a problem xampp not staying up. As part of diagnosing the problem I deleted all of xampp and went through the reinstall process. I finally diagnosed that it was a problem with Apache and Skype sharing port 80. I changed the ports on Skype and then xampp stays up.
Problem with Mapping
Now I go back to WeBuilder and try to preview a php page using the same settings and the same mapped folders, what I get is the xampp start page (the same one that I can see and work with when I put http://localhost/ in my client browser).
If I put the php page in the c:\xampp\htdocs then the php works. But this means that every time I work on a site I have to move it to the c drive into that folder... a real hassle.
How do I fix this?
Your help is greatly appreciated!

Re: PHP mapping not working
if you open httpd.conf (likely at C:\xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf ) and search for "DocumentRoot", you'll see a directive that points to a folder on your computer. point this to wherever you'd like and restart apache. should work. my apache fu is weak though.
