Virtual Hosts? Is that my problem?

[Adam65]

HI Apache Guru's out there!

I am pretty new to it all so forgive my dumb questions in advance.

I have installed Apache2.2 on my Windows XP machine.
I am able to open a browser, type localhost and get the index.html file out of the htdocs directory to pop up saying "It Works!"

Great!
Now when I add the Virtual Host directives into httpd-vhosts.conf (and uncomment the Include line under VirtualHosts in the httpd.conf file) I can't seem to get my other domain serving it's page to the browser!!

I am soo frustrated...

Here is my httpd.conf:

Okay.. the stuff in bold is exactly what shows in my httpd-vhosts.conf file.

Firstly the only way I can get hailpoker.html to show in the browser is opening that file and saving it in the docroot directory (in my case: C:/webserver/www/htdocs) as index.html...then in place of the "It Works!" message when I enter in localhost or hailpoker.com i get my basic test page come up that I renamed from hailpoker to index.html. Great!... so now I know how to have my page come up when someone enters my domain name into a browser, you would think (haven't tested from a different internet connection). But what about this virtual host stuff... I cant seem to get it going.

I get the same result if I comment out all of the virtual host directives so what Ive done so far is obviously ineffective. Can anyone help?

Any questions or suggestions?

i'm note sure but write documentroot before serveralias and servername or place index files on separat folders
