Karen, restarting apache worked instantly. I'm not used to having to do that. Normally it's the browser caching the old page that drives you crazy. Fortunately I have some aliases for starting, stopping, restarting etc that make this really painless.
The idea of using the dev server has a lot of appeal, and I was upset when I thought it wouldn't work remotely. I can't have it "listen" to all ip's cause the regular everyday apache server has some of these it's working in the form of production websites. But your syntax for doing runserver with an ip might work for me to just listen for the experimental site. Thanks for your time. I really appreciate it.
