Hello. I just downloaded MAMP and have made two test files (.php) saved in my htdocs in my MAMP folder. When I type localhost in my browser I get this:

Why would you want to use MAMP on a RapidWeaver site? RW has a built in server for previewing your site.

You could publish to it, of course, but the end result would be pretty much the same as with hitting command+p from within RW.
