I spent a couple of hours today trying to figure out how to make self signed certs such that browsing to https://localhost would show the page without complaining about not knowing the CA that issued the site's certificate. If you bump into the solution I would appreciate it if you could reply to this thread.

You need to import your self-sign CA cert into the browser. Other than that (and editing the source, of course) you can't make the browser not complain; the whole point of the complaining is that your browser doesn't know about the CA and so can't trust them.
