I decided and reasoned out that rather than ask her out directly at work,I would join the site and ask her out via the site. She replied that she had joined the site as she wanted to meet someone outside of work,due to previous bad experiences.She said it was best to leave it at that,but she thanked me anyway. I was disappointed as I believed that she likes me.We have not spoken about this since.When she sees me she smiles and we say hello. I am thinking of approaching her and telling her my genuine feelings and the reasons I contacted her via the site. I think she does like me,what should I do leave it at that,or wait and approach her in person in the near future?

 I think you should definately go for it.
The trouble with the internet, is that words can be interpreted in many different ways. Perhaps the 'rejection' she gave you was actually more out of fear of getting hurt. If she says she has had previous bad experiences, then I expect an online relationship with a colleague isn't best for her.
Let her know you're serious, in person, and then she what she says. Maybe take her out to lunch and break the news then. And, if it turns out she still isn't really interested, then you can have a comfortable friendship with a lovely woman. And that's never a bad thing. x
