WHAT & WHY: As a developer many time you may wish if you could run your static HTML website locally on your computer (Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows 2008). Although with Static website, you could easily download and double click the index.html or home.html file to open and run other pages. But this will not give you the real world senario. For example you will not able to use a path like /images/home-page-banner.jpg. You will have to use a relative paths like ../images/home-page-banner.jpg. Following are very easy steps to do so. These steps are for Static HTML website. I will also post steps for more advance websites that uses ASP, ASP.NET, Dotnetnuke etc and uses database server. WHAT YOU NEED: 1. IIS Server installed on your local machine 2. FTP username, password to download files form your FTP server 3. Administrative rights on local machine. Many task will display messages requesting Administrative privilege to run the task. STEPS: 1.
Yes I am glad to see them retire the Blue and Gray skins. I despise them and it makes everyone think DNN is bad based on that first impression. This is much better, but still has further to come. Give up the tables we say!

Well said. It took us years to prove that we can build a good looking website using Dotnetnuke. Because everyone had the blue skin impression, boxy skin with typical top menu. But once we had www.adventisthealthsystem.com and then www.ctmc.org no one questioned.
