I am hosting my own website at home on a 2nd pc running Windows 2000 with IIS 5.0, cable modem, Linksys router, and a static ip on my web server pc. I have a registered domain name, my dynamic IP is being updated great by ZoneEdit. I am "port forwarding" http port 80 to the static address I gave my machine. The router assigns the other addresses in the home network.

App pc's in my home network can see my website fine, as developed, but from outside, at work, the library, or a friends house, all I see is a static web page with no images & no CSS applied. I put the images and CSS in the root with the appropreiate changes to my site to pick that up and still no images & no CSS. When I go directly to an image using mydomainname.com/images/dummy.gif it shows an "x" box placeholder. The CSS downloads and empty file.

I am using the access rights as defined by IIS when it was installed. I checked the folder rights and they look fine.

What am I doing wrong? What setting do I need to make?

Thanks a lot for your help in advance!

When I get home this evening 6pm CST I will go to directory C:\Inetpub\ and right-click on images | security tab and send a new post.

EVERYONE has READ & EXECUTE, LIST FOLDER CONTENTS, & READ
WEBSERVER\IUSR_WEBSERVER has the same
WEBSERVER\IWAM_WEBSERVER has the same

This does not include the permissions shown when I also select ADVANCED...

Do you want those also?

Test pages:
-----------
index.html - star.gif image links, within DIV's, no CSS
index2.html - star.gif image links, no DIV's, no CSS
index3.html - displays red_rectangle.jpg only, no CSS
red_rectangle.jpg in root to test directly going to image
index-ORIGINAL.html - fully designed web page using CSS
and images defined within it.

Thanks,

Have restaructured the test pages to be less code. You may access the main test (default index) page to test the others. Index.html coe follows. Website is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
"<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<p>
Star.gif image should be showing here=><img src="images/star.gif" /><==<br /><br />
<a href="index2.html">Link to page that displays Red Triangle JPG image</a><br /><br />
<a href="index-ORIGINAL.html">Link to the fully designed page</a>
</p>
</body>
</html>

"<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<img src="red_rectangle.jpg" />

And here's the source of index-ORIGINAL.html:

Thanks Serbtastic!

Being you can see the code I assume it displayed correctly to you the images and colorss formatted by the CSS?

If yes, it is really odd that you are able to see everything and I cannot. Work is the only place I have to check it from using IE6 behind a firewall, but I see all other sites on the web I go to fine.

Any ideas now, on what this all might mean to translate into a setting change at work, on my home pc server?

Thanks,
T
