Either computer will run using localhost in the address ie.http://localhost/parksville/pville_init.html within itself but not using an ip specific such as ie. http://205.233.104.228/Parksville/Pville_init.html. from a "client" to the "gisserver"
I hope i'm explaining this okay.

Just to confirm - does it run fine from any machine - i.e. locally on the 
server?
