I'm new to this, so be gentle!

Basically, I've got a website that I want to install Joomla onto. So far, it's all done in XHTML with Dreamweaver, and I'm updating it manually.

What I want to do is install Joomla onto the site and get the PHP into some existing XHTML templates, then re-upload my content (but that's not specifically what I'm asking about here).

My question is, do I need to install and configure Joomla on the web space itself, or can I do it on my hard drive and then just upload all the files?

Thanks guys.

Yes, you can do all the stuff locally - you'll just need WAMP (apache + mysql + php), EasyPHP, phpdev or similar to run your joomla locally.

I am using EasyPHP - its very easy to install and to use.
