I have a single user system and need to work on 2 quite different sites on my home pc before transferring them to the isp .
Where can I find instructions on how to set up and work on 2 quite separate web pages. I guess they will use the same database so how would I separate each site so the components and database info can be transferred to a live ISP site. At present I have separate drupal installations.
I believe there is a way to have one theme-set as the shop front - main page that everyone sees and another theme-set of pages for members. Where can I get instructions for beginners about this please.
Off subject-- Is it worth going over to Drupal 7 now instead of having to upgrade down the track.
TIA Roger
check this link that will help you for multi site module for drupal.
Drupal 7 is still in development stage. It is not good for newbies.

You can setup as many domains locally as you wish. Just add them to /etc/hosts and use a normal install or a mutisiteinstall. No need to do it with one domain only.

If drupal7 supports all the features you need, maybe. But many modules haven't been ported and there might be no security support for it until release. Drupal6 will be supported for a long time, so I wouldn't do it unless there were very good reasons.
