thanks John

I found the solution by modifying the HOSTS file

Here is the blog, doing the same thing except I am not using XAMPP

I have two servers, production and test.
I am not doing any thing to production server. production blog site

On my test server, I want to set up two copies of same blog.
– one copy for staging blog site
– another copy for test blog site

So when I will get request to change any thing, I will :
– do changes on test blog site
– if every thing good with test blog site, then move to staging blog site
– and at the end do changes on the production blog site

I don’t know if Network solution is good for me. I also want two different database, I think in network, you can only have one database.

Here is more explanation what I am doing:

on my local machine, I set up two blogs.

Step 1:I set up two sites as follow:
https://test1/
https://test2/
Step 2:two databases:
wordpress1
wordpress2

step 3: change the db information in the wp-config.php for each site
For https://test1/ as follow:

// ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress1');

/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', 'test1_user');

/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'test');

/** MySQL hostname */
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');

/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');

/** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */
define('DB_COLLATE', '');

For https://test2/ as follow:

// ** MySQL settings - You can get this info from your web host ** //
/** The name of the database for WordPress */
define('DB_NAME', 'wordpress2');

/** MySQL database username */
define('DB_USER', 'test2_user');

/** MySQL database password */
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'test');

/** MySQL hostname */
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost');

/** Database Charset to use in creating database tables. */
define('DB_CHARSET', 'utf8');

/** The Database Collate type. Don't change this if in doubt. */
define('DB_COLLATE', '');

step 4: change the site URL in the wp-config.php for each site
For Test1:

define('WP_HOME','https://localhost');
define('WP_SITEURL','https://localhost');

For Test2:

define('WP_HOME','https://test2');
define('WP_SITEURL','https://test2');

here only one site is working with URL https://localhost, but not the other one with URL https://test2.

So thing is that that only localhost URL is working, not any other, even I follow same steps for other site too.
Is it even possible?
Do I need to change php.ini file?
I do not want to do this on my production server, only on my test server.

font-weight:bold;
-moz-border-radius: 10px 10px 0px 0px;
-webkit-border-radius: 10px 10px 0px 10px;
border-radius: 10px 10px 0px 0px;

Thanks alchymyth for your quick reply.

Yes I have the same code as:

register_sidebar(array('name'=>'sidebar3',
	'before_widget' => '<li id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">',
	'after_widget' => '</li>',
	'before_title' => '<h3>',
	'after_title' => '</h3>',
	));

but I don’t know what CSS setting display in firebug as follow:
<canvas style=”position:absolute;top:-0px;left:-0px;” height=”8px” width=”8px”></canvas>

I need to work on rounded corners of tag <h3>

thanks again!
