I have had localhost apache set up on Monterey on Mac mini w/M1 chip. I was disappointed about not having php available. But I was able to set up the doc root folder with the content I want to access with browser set to localhost. BUT, now it is not working. When I launch the browser (Firefox, Safari) the index page that is served is the 'It Works' page. This is NOT being served from /Libraray/WebServer/Documents. When I try to access content that should be available it comes up not found. I have not done anything with the configuration (httpd.conf). Has anyone had similar issues and may have some fix suggestions? The only difference I have made beyond the initial settup is to install MAMP to have access to php. This was some weeks before the current issue showed up. I have tried looking at the console. But it appears significantly different than the consoles I am used to. I do not see any access to apache logs. As a side note: I have also been using Garage Band to generate some simple chime tone mp3 files. When I tell Garage Band to download and install sound libraries, it fails and the project file has become partially unresponsive: for tracks I cannot change sound assignments and sounds are not produced with playback. (this is on the same machine under the same OS) I do not know if these two issues are related. But if they are I may suspect a network related issue.

Are there scoping issues with document.cookie in Safari? I have written a javascript constructor function around document.cookie. The constructor function is defined in the global scope but is used inside of another object instance. It works in Firefox and Chrome but does not work in Safari. If I do window.onload = function() { var ck = 'test=this; max-age=600; domain=localhost; path=/dev_lab_current/lab_56; SameSite=Lax'; document.cookie = ck; } it works. But it does not set the cookie in my html application. The application has a host object constructor that creates an instance of the cookie manager constructor within it. So it is about 2 scope levels deep. But the exact same code DOES work in Firefox and Chrome. The html is designed to allow hard coded records to be kept for cookies created by it. PHP is used to write the hard coded records in a javascript source code file. For this reason I would not post a demo on my publically available web site. Thank you for time and attention JK
