hi everyone
i don't have a very good knowledge about xampp so i want a detailed help about my problem.
i have a local network connected with 5 computers.but xampp is installed in one pc.i developed some web pages on it.
now i want to access the web pages from the rest 4 computers as a client computer through the LAN. i don't have any internet connection on this network.
thanks you all

Open xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf file in your text editor and change this line
Listen 80
to
Listen *:80
Save the file and restart Apache.

Now try and access your web server using the IP address of that machine in your browsers address bar from the other machines on the LAN but make sure the ports are open in your router that XAMPP uses.

Ports that are used can be found in http://localhost/security from the XAMPP PC on the LAN.

Localhost is only available and used on the PC XAMPP is installed on.
