Rather than rewriterules try mod_proxy and freinds (assuming version 2.2)
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy.html

if you're proxying a page hosted on 192.168.5.10 that instructs the browser to
load additional files (such as cascading stylesheets and javascript) that are
also hosted on 192.168.5.10, then you either need to proxy those additional
assets, or move them onto a publicly-accessible web server and rewrite the web
content to point at their new public location.
if http://192.168.5.10/survey08app/loginForm.htm contains instructions like
<link rel=css href=/survey08app/loginForm.css> and <script
src=/survey08app/loginForm.js> -- the web browser is going to request those from
your public server, and you'll need to host them publicly or proxy those files
as well.
you might try something lazy and just proxy everything that falls under a
certain directory, along the lines of:
RewriteRule ^/survey08app/(.*)$ http://192.168.5.10/survey08app/$1 [L,P]
so if your user's browser requests any of
/survey08app/loginform.php
/survey08app/loginform.css
/survey08app/someotherfile.etc.etc
those are proxied from
http://192.168.5.10/survey08app/loginform.php
http://192.168.5.10/survey08app/loginform.css
http://192.168.5.10/survey08app/someotherfile.etc.etc
respectively.

Check for missing or ampty action atribute at th <form ... > tag.
