No offense, but yuk. Just get apache, bind it to 127.0.0.1, make all paths relative and use portable firefox (with IETab if you like). Never had a problem.

Ehtyar.

I think the point here is to help you create a standalone application that you could give to a client or a worker, so that they can use your tool like a standalone application without being overwhelmed.

Now that looks interesting. My brain is already sorting through possible uses. Thanks Mouser.

I don't get it. What's this for? It's like a standalone, offline, Web 2.0 app?
