 * Hey Guys,
 * I’ve previously installed a wp blog on the root of my server, but now I’d like
   to install another blog in a subfolder. It’s not working, it just gives me a 
   blank page…
 * Help!
 * Thanks
    Danny

 * You can do that, but you have to change the table prefix in the wp-config.php
   or your 2nd blog will be using the same tables as your 1st – not good.
    Open 
   your 2nd blogs wp-config.php and look for: `$table_prefix = 'wp_'; // Only numbers,
   letters, and underscores please!`
 * Change `wp_` to something else like `wp1_`
    This will give your 2nd blog it’s
   own tables.
