I've finally got nocatsplash up and running to redirect users to a spash screen on my server before letting them out on Internet. But my splash.php will not display any graphics and is therefor rather dull. What can I do to fix this?? I thought I could enter the server into "allowed web hosts", but no luck. Is that the way to do it? How do I in that case enter the address??
Not sure if you still need help, but perhaps this can help others...
If you're using nocatsplash with a splash page hosted on a remote server, realize that the page is cached by nocat. When the page is displayed to users, it's being shown from http://192.168.x.1:5280/ - NOT from the original page.
This means that links to images need to specify the full URL of the image on its original site. Partial paths like "/images/image.gif" will resolve to http://192.168.x.1:5280/images/image.gif
