[Chameleon] proxy problems..

Hi all,
This email is related to a couple I posted last week seeking assistance with
my chameleon install behind a proxy... I think the nature of the issue (or
at least how I understand it) has changed so I am posting a simmilar
question ....
I have a mapserver/chameleon application installed on one of our networked
servers. When I look at my application from behind our LAN, everything works
fine. When I look at it from the web, the mapserver generated images dont
show up. A note on web access: Inorder to get to the server from WAN, http
requests go through a firewall/ proxy server. Obviously the server has a
different name when one looks at its pages from WAN than from LAN. 

My entire ms4w/chameleon install is setup in a directory on the server
simmillar to: d:/proxy/myspace/ms4w/ ..etc ..

My application files are set up in a dir simmilar to:
d:/proxy/myspace/webappfiles/

I have made changes to the conf files so that this set-up works (for the
most part).

Ok, my application doesnt work from the web. However, all of chameleon's
samples work perfectly from the web! My application is not overly
dissimmilar to the chameleon samples. This makes me think that the issue is
a small one, perhaps a line of code im my app, or an incorrectly referenced
file. Can anyone who is more fammilliar with chameleon suggest what might be
goin on here? Im assuming that since cham's sample apps work fine, the
problem is not with either of the http servers that a web client must pass
to get to the app, and likly in my chameleon setup.
Im going to go line by line through my files, any thoughts on where I should
be checking?

Many Thanks
Jeremy
