Subject:  Initial effort ... not without incident
I just downloaded the demo version of Foxweb and installed.
 
I tried entering the URL http://localhost/scripts/foxweb.exe/show_cgi
 
and it didn't work.
 
I knew it would not because I know that LOCALHOST is referring to c:\inetpub\wwwroot and there is not scripts subdirectory off of that location.
 
So next, I tried http://localhost/show_cgi.fwx and it didn't work.
 
I was less sure about that one because I saw the FWX script mapping assigned to c:\inetpub\scripts\foxweb.dll in the IIS setup for the WEBSITES on my computer.
 
So next, I mapped FWX to c:\inetpub\scripts\foxweb.dll in my DEFAULT WEBSITE which is c:\inetpub\wwwroot.
 
Then http://localhost/show_cgi.fwx worked.
 
If you understood all of this ... I am wondering if this is normal or did I make a mistake someplace in the intial install of Foxweb.
