Hey Mohammed,I'm replying because you prompted me to from another thread. I'll be upfront here and say, staging is not a feature that I tend to leverage often. I think it has improved tremendously over the last few years, but I have been burned in the past so it has left me a little sour 
. I'm telling you this because it's all going from memory here.
From what I recall, under the hood, the way staging is managed is through a "multi-site" relationship. So you have a "staged" site so to speak, and a "live" site. Each will therefore have a corresponding groupId that you can use to lookup pages in the layout table. Question for you -- is you staging and live on the same server? or are you content authoring on "Server A" and then publishing to "Server B" ? (I ask because of your reference to remote server -- sometimes clients have used that term with me, but they just assumed that there were two servers involved when it was actually only one)
