Your first question: you can save your files anywhere, as long as you tell Apache where it can be found on your system.

For example, when I develop my sites on my PC, a windows xp machine, I save it to a folder that mimicks the path on my remote web server.

Code:

c:\home\username1\domains\gidnetwork.com\public_html\
c:\home\username2\domains\gidforums.com\public_html\
...etc

and in my PC's version of the httpd.conf file, I put the following in place under the virtual host bit:

Code:

NameVirtualHost *:80

# GIDNETWORK.COM
<VirtualHost *:80>
	RewriteEngine on
	RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^gidnetwork\.com
	RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.gidnetwork.com$1	[R=301,L]
	php_value include_path ".;/home/username1/domains/gidnetwork.com/includes"

    ServerAdmin giddomains@gmail.com
    DocumentRoot /home/username1/domains/gidnetwork.com/public_html
    ServerName www.gidnetwork.com
    ErrorLog logs/www.gidnetwork.com-error_log
    CustomLog logs/www.gidnetwork.com-access_log combined
</VirtualHost>

# GIDFORUMS.COM
<VirtualHost *:80>
	RewriteEngine on
	RewriteCond %{HTTP_HOST} ^gidforums\.com
	RewriteRule ^(.*)$ http://www.gidforums.com$1	[R=301,L]
	php_value include_path ".;/home/username1/domains/gidnetwork.com/includes"

    ServerAdmin giddomains@gmail.com
    ServerName www.gidforums.com
    DocumentRoot /home/username2/domains/gidforums.com/public_html
    ErrorLog logs/www.gidforums.com-error_log
    CustomLog logs/www.gidforums.com-access_log combined
</VirtualHost>
