l Style sheets cannot refer to external resources.
l The Connect Server user needs access to whichever network path is used. If the network

Authentication is possible only through URL Parameters
(http://www.example.com/data.json?user=username&password=password) or through HTTP
Basic Auth (http://username:[e-mail]/data.json).
