XAMPP & CakePHP > Running in a sub-directory

Good day all, and this is my first post to the group and trying to
get Cake to be able to run from a Sub-directory (structure) instead
of /weboot in my XAMPP installation in order to keep this cleaner.

http://localhost/myCoreRoutines/cake/

OR?? Maybe I just need to create a 'sub-domain'...in which I am
really unsure how to to to my "localhost" ?? (not sure if I am
explaining this correct, but I am NOT running my local box as a web
server using a FQDN

I did do a 'search' first (prior to posting) ox 'xampp' and there
were 16 results and none of them were really addressing what I need to
accomplish

I am sure it is just a pathing or setting I need to
change...similar to an IF/ELSE statement possibly, but I am usure how
to achieve this please.

I have installed LOCAL as C:\xampp\htdocs\cake

LOCAL ENVIRONMENT
Win2kServer running XAMPP
PHP 5.2.9 (cli) (built: Feb 25 2009 15:52:24)

I also (after local dev and testing) will be uploading to:

REMOTE ENVIRONMENT

For now, I have uploaded my CAKEPHP to a subdomain (created using
cPanel) such as:

cake.theWebsite.com

First of all, I am using this tutorial which is laid out VERY WELL
for someone new to understand and is step by step:

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/tutorials/os-php-cake1/index.html

I am able to get up to page 3 of this where there is a form:

http://cake.theWebsite.com/users/register

Everything works just fine !!

But, on my LOCAL set up...which is a "sub-directory", and not a sub-
domain (aka WEBROOT) and I am able to get the FORM to load fine

And the LOCAL URL is:

http://localhost/myCoreRoutines/cake/users/register

but what is happening after FORM SUBMISSION

Cake is PATHING this back into the "WEBROOT" of :

http://localhost/users/register

(Please note the removal of : myCoreRoutines/cake from the URL)

and is tossing (of course)

Object not found!
The requested URL was not found on this server.

Any help would be greatly appreciated...and I would suspect a simple
solution....it is just I am noew to CAKE.

I had no problem using this SubDir structure using /symfony at all.

Thank you all in advance,

Jim
