I’m doing my initial development using WAMP. When I access the development Web site from the machine it’s installed on, everything is working as expected. However, WAMP also supports remote access from other computers on the network, but when I try accessing the development page from a different computer (as
http://nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn where the nnn’s are the IP address of my computer) the displayed page has no formatting or graphics.
It’s clear that modx is doing its stuff, as all the content is on the page (including text, links, etc.) which is obtained from templates, chunks. snippets, etc. But it looks like it isn’t able to find the styles or images. It finds them when I access locally, but not remotely. Seems weird to me! As far as I know, the location of these things is dealt with entirely on the "server" side and all references should be path relative to what the server defines, so it doesn’t seem like it should make any difference whether the call to the server comes from its own computer (localhost) or from a remote computer, but apparently I’m wrong about this somewhere...
Does anyone have an idea of what I need to do differently to allow the server to find its files when it’s servicing a remote call?
Thanks as always!
