2 Queries regarding PHP and Access

[scottf]

Hi,
I'm relativley new too actually using Apache and webhosting. But I have to queries that I'm hoping people can help me with.

1.
I have just installed Entropys PHP 4.3.6-3 onto my G4 iMac running Mac OS 10.3. It seems to have worked fine, I see PHP webpages as would be seen if uploaded and remotely hosted on an "actual" Apache webserver. But I find that when i try to either "login" to the admin section of my blogger or post a test message on my shoutbox while viewing them on my iMac, it won't take me to the login page or record my "shout". Ideas?

2.
I'll try and keep my second query as simple as possible.
I have a frameset of 3 HTML pages (index.html, navigation.html and content.html). The index and navigation HTML pages are remotely hosted (not hosted on my iMac) but the content.html page is hosted on my iMac.
When I go to [mydomain.co.uk...] I find that, as expected the all bar the content.html pages load fine, and my Broadband modem asks me for my admin u'name and password. As expected, loggin in just results in a Error 404.
Is there any way around this?

Appologies about the length of my 2nd post.

Scott

1. isn't php installed already on 10.3?

and 2. I don't really understand the question, you are trying to login to a page on your own iMac via a page hosted remotely? erm. Is this wise? I do know frames are evil.

ps.. for 1. you'll need to give more info; are you hosting in your ~user directory? or web root? did you set the permissions? which blogging system? use a database? that sort of stuff.
