It's the same. Good call though. : )

I thought Liz Joseph had it fixed for me earlier but when I started
moving files around, I realized I was viewing files from the same
location under a different path. So I'm starting to wonder if I'm
chasing ghosts.

If I place an HTML document in /srv/www and set that same path as my
DocumentRoot in a new VirtualHost and I set all permissions the same as
/var/www then how do I navigate from the browser to view the HTML
document located at /srv/www and not end up viewing the HTML document at
/var/www? How do I duplicate the results of /var/www to /srv/www?
