I have a html file, which has a Javascript section:

<html>
<header>
<script src="my_util.js" language="javascript"></script>
...
</header>

<body scroll="no" >
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript">
<!--

//Somewhere in the JS code, I need to call http://www.XYZ.com/php/my.php

// -->
</script>
...

</body>
</html>

I can not change the file extension from html to php. How should I do it?

I'm not savvy enough with the Apache web server (which is what I am assuming you are using to serve your php) to trick it into processing a file with a type .html instead of .php.

I think it should belong to this forum.

I want to use Ajax to call the remote php file like following:

// I got XmlHttpRequest object successfully, but got an exception at the following line:
xmlHttpRequest.open('POST', "http://www.XYZ.com/php/my.php", true);

In FireFox, the exception was: Access to restricted URI denied code: "1012"

I also tried IE and Safari and got a similar error at the same line of the code.

I know I can call remote a Java object (servlet) in the same way, why not php?

Just to be clear, "www.xyz.com" is the server where your page was served from, right? Otherwise this access is not allowed under the "same origin" rule.

Yes. Both the html and php are from www.xyz.com. I can access the www.xyz.com/php/my.php directly from a browser w/o problems.

Ah, it was not clear that by "call" you meant an Ajax request. I've restored this to the HTML/JavaScript forum.

Are you specifying a port, both using www? Everything about the urls have to be the same [ no sub domains]

Thanks Eric. It is the "www".
