Just in case anyone else runs into the same problem...
when configuring the xsl templates, do not use images that step outside the
portal - this seems to cause problems for the pages redirects. For example,
if you replace the dashlogo.gif with a new image 'imagelogo.jpg' and give
http://<IP address>/imagelogo.jpg as the address, the page will load but
will not go to the correct page when you click on the button (such as
cancel, continue). Placing the image inside the resources folder and giving
'imagelogo.jpg as the address (i.e. the filename) will work, however. This
seems to be the case from my experience...I do not know if the strUrl...
variable is somehow cleared by this or if the image cannot be located
(strange given that it is since it is displayed).
