I am using WAMP server to run my website. I am using Windows 7.

I created LAN between 2 PC and I want to access my localhost from the second PC.
Note that I am not using Internet connection so I couldn't use IP address.

Please, give me your suggestion.

You have to edit httpd.conf and find this line: Listen 127.0.0.1:80

Then write down your desired IP you set for LAN. Don't use automatic IP.
e.g.: Listen 192.168.137.1:80

I used 192.167.137.1 as my LAN IP of Windows 7. Restart Apache and enjoy sharing.
