I have 2 technical questions and see if anyone can help me out.
My buddy is developing a website and he hired someone to do it. The website is on the developer's server (my buddy can only access it via an IP address).
He did a screen sharing session few days ago to show the developer the errors via Teamviewer (my buddy controlled the developer's computer) and there is no error. However, he can see the problem on his own computer (both PC). He made sure both browsers are the same version.

1. How is that possible? They go to the same IP address and the result is different.

2. If the developer uploads the website to a proper web hosting server (Netfirms), is there a chance the website will look different than the one on the IP address?

Questions:
Is the developer's server the same as his development machine?  Is the dev server in the same network as the dev machine?

What are the errors that your buddy is receiving that the developer is not?

Answers:
1. It's possible because it could be networking/firewall issues.  Furthermore, it could also be security settings in the browsers.

2. Yes there is definitely a possiblity it can look different.  Depending on what the server settings are, there can be big differences.

Can't answer that one as he doesn't know.

It's mainly layout issues.
