Ok ive decided to, for fun, write a website which can be viewed and accessed from my lan only which contains a list of films i have available on the network. The films will b stored in a mySQL database to allow for easy manipulation and to make it easy to store plenty of information about each film: directory / actors-actresses / rating / genre / location on network.
From this site the user will then b able to run the film by clicking on a link which shud hopefully launch windows media player / powerdvd + the film on their computer.
The site will only b accessible from within the lan and i was wondering how i can go about doing this. I can program the site easy enough but just need to get the local php/mysql server running (ideally with phpmyadmin for easier table creation).
The only other snippet of information which might b important is that currently none of my machines run linux as their primary operating system although this is prolly set to change in the nxt month or so, however atm i want this working on a windows based machine.
Any help wud b much appreciated!
