joomla

[Michael Havens]

I've already installed it on my local machine. The reason I'm thinking I
need a database for each webpage is that I created a link to the webpage's
location in /var/www in an experiment to be able to not store the page in
/var/www but rather in ~/Documents/<etc> . Then when I went to the admin
page it wanted to setup joomla again.
