Hi Dan and Markus
I have added some troubleshooting tips, based on notes I took during the Friday May 14 meeting, to the Selenium Framework page: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/SeleniumFramework#Working_example I think it has the tip about port 4444. My intent was to add information for problem solving and notes as I was using Selenium. If this is something that needs to be updated, then let me know. Also let me know if I need to reference the person who suggested the tip on the page (to give appropriate credit). I will be copying the php framework into Selenium IDE and giving it a try.

--------------------------- Hi Markus,
Despite my initial problems getting the Selenium Framework to run, I think it is a great start. Now that I have the PagedTiffHandler working, here is some feedback on the current framework:
+ When I svn up ../tests (or any ancestor directory), the local changes + I make to RunSeleniumTests cause a local conflict error. Eventually, many of the configuration changes I made should appear in LocalSeleniumSettings, but it isn't clear that is possible for all of them. For example, I change the commented out set_include_path to include my local PHP/PEAR directory. Can this be set in LocalSeleniumSettings? Another difference is the include_once() for each test suite. Is it possible to move these into LocalSeleniumSettings?
+ It appears there is no way to tell RunSeleniumTests to use a selenium server port other than 4444. It would be useful to have a -port parameter on RunSeleniumServer for this. For example, if there are multiple developers working on the same machine, they probably need to use different selenium servers differentiated by different port numbers.
I don't mind working on both of these issues, but since you are the original architect of the framework, it is probably best for you to comment on them first and perhaps suggest what you consider to be the best approach to their resolution.
