Something Strange going on

I have a web site that has drop down that looks in a view called ViewActivePeople2. I get the pesons ID # and store it in a field call StateID. I have a second one that is dependent on the first called ParticipantName which is suppost to grab and store hte individuals name. I limit the choice the person has from their logon (they are associated with a delegation and I scan the view to see only those name(s) associated with that delegation (I have 3 fields calledDel1, Del2 and Del3 I store this into)
Heres the strange part, after I build it, if I access the web page from within my network - works correctly. But if I access it from outside my network (ie: the real world ip) it will show the name in the drop down box but not the StateID. And since it doesn't show on web page it doesn't update the table I store it in.
It use to work and am not sure why it stopped? <img src='https://asprunner.com/forums/file.php?topicimage=1&fieldname=question&id=7339&image=1&table=forumtopics' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' /> <img src='https://asprunner.com/forums/file.php?topicimage=1&fieldname=question&id=7339&image=2&table=forumtopics' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' />
I have a couple of other post, maybe they are all related??!!!???
My web server is a Windows 2000 server machine with a NIC that connects to the outside thru our firewall and a internal one that allows it to connect to a Windows 2003 Server running SQL Server 2000
