Joe,

This leads to 1 more nice 'gotcha'.  If you are using a web app from the 
same network it is hosted on, your modem/router/switch/whatever might 
redirect you to a local IP without your knowing it.  Your page works 
fine outside your network, but won't work inside it.  I have yet to find 
a solution to this, as it comes up occasionally.

HTH,
Jim Moseley
