What ip did you get, a public or a private ip?
Is your web-server behind a firewall or a home office router?
Are you trying to browse the web site, by using the public ip, the private ip or the domain name?

If you're running your own DNS server inside your lokal network, there is possibly configured a A Record for your Domain name, that points to the local IP address of the Server.
That would declare, that it's possible to access the web server by Domain name.
For the public IP of that web server, there is no entry in the routing table, that points the local computers to the right direction.

So when trying to access the web server via ip address, you have to use it's private ip address from your local lan.
E.g. 192.168.x.x

Non-authoritative answer:

No, that was concerning a Web-Server in your local net, accessable from the internet.

If your Web-Server is hosted on a public server and you can't access it from inside your network by using the domain name, there is something wrong with your DNS configuration.

What output did you get, when trying to ping www.translineups.com or ping translineups.com.

The output must not be something like 192.168.x.x.

That's what I meant.
If you go to simply ping the domain name and get back 192.168.x.x, there is a wrong lokal entry in your DNS server or router.
