Hi

I recently starter doing some web programming CSS, XML etc., so i need to test sites on various browsers. Firefox, Opera, and Safari works on the mac, but not IE7. I also read somewhere on the forum that IE7 does not work with Crossover.

So i decided to try Fusion, but i cant seems to access the site on the OSX side with fusion. So is there a way to access webpages in (../user/macman/sites/my site) using fusion or parallels? without the need to install apache in windows.

I tried localhost and 127.0.0.1 none works in fusion.

From IE7 in Windows go to http://IPAddressOfYourMac/~OSXAccountShortUsername/

So for example: http://192.168.1.2/~e7e/
