Exception in opening a connection using AJAX call

[Rinky Kaur]

when I made a connection on the same server at different port using AJAX call in FireFox browser
xmlHttp=new XMLHttpRequest();
xmlHttp.open("GET", url,true);
I got the exception
[Exception... "Access to restricted URI denied" code: "1012" ....]
I discovered this is for security reasons in Firefox.

Is there a solution to it? ie,Can we MAKE AN A CALL USING AJAX on different domain? HOW?

You can not. JavaScript has a same domain policy. You must set up a proxy on the server.
