Is there an offline viewer for wordpress so that I can edit the pages on my computer and upload to the server?

    You can do this by installing a local Apache installation using XAMPP for Windows, then installing WordPress under that.

    apache friends - xampp for windows

    Alternatively if you have an old computer laying around install Linux (I recommend Ubuntu) on it and build yourself a development server. I have a couple of these and find them indispensable.

    Yes, XAMPP for windows is great. I use it almost every day. Especially to edit a WP themes or plugin, it's really helpful.

    same here with XAMPP, awesome tool. Although i use it for joomla but works great for testing any php based web app or site. easy to install and use.

    Thanks so much. I run Fedora 11 on my machine at home and was looking for an excuse for a server

    Another vote for xampp - using it for years and it was the best thing I installed on my machine
