Save all content for first one in site1 and another in site2 like this

c:/wamp/www/site1
c:/wamp/www/site2

And access them like this

[localhost]
[localhost]

That's the way to go. After created, site1 and site2 becomes another 2 www. Not quite exactly, but don't know how to explain it to you. For example, look at my signature, you can see I have both phpBB2 and phpBB3 forums, all content of phpBB2 are in phpBB2 folder and similarly, all content of phpBB3 are in phpBB3 folder, so on, so when you click the link of phpBB2, you will go to phpBB2 site, and will go to phpBB3 site when clicking the link of phpBB3. Got it?

Hope this help

Are you trying to name another directory for use instead of "www"?

hi, i am understanding what r u saying. I may not be able to explain clearly.

Now we have by default www directory in our wamp folder after installation. suppose i installed wamp in C drive then www will be as C://WAMP/WWW,

what i want is to create another directory that works like www.
suppose i create a directory in my E drive that works same with wamp as our www directory in C drive .

I hope i made myself clear

Will this works if yes then how ?

The answer is yes, but the question is why do you want to make it so complicated like that?

That's a good question too. Of course, I'm not using the default either. LOL
