Just setup networking between host and guest and configure apache to listen on remotely accessible IP and you should be able to connect from guest.

It'll depend on which networking mode you're using on that guest. If you're using the default (NAT), you can simply reach your host os on the default gateway ip of the guest's network adapter.

i use NAT , and on the host i use user directories, i access my web server using http://localhost/~username , then what is the address i can use to access that from the guest?

Like I said in my previous post; "ipconfig /all" on your Windows Xp guest, see what the default gateway ip is and then http://<defaultgwip>/~username
