Connect to virtual host computer from within virtualbox

I'm currently developing on an Ubuntu Karmic. For this I've installed lampp with a virtual host on apache so http://myproject/ is mapped to my project's root directory.

"I think you should look at the type of network that Virtualbox is using for your virtual machine.

My preferred method of networking using Virtualbox is to use Bridged networking mode. Here, your virtual machine will appear on the same network as the host - it is just like having another physical machine plugged into the same router as the host machine.

Otherwise you could look at using host-only networking, which appears to me to offer what you want, but I've never used it."
