I mentioned i read the suggested link ...and Could not able to understand the
suggestion ..Use Greasemonkey to modify Pages and start writing some
javascript to modify a web page
I am loading a text file with $.ajax
. When running the code on Firefox, I get the following error:
Error: [Access to restricted URI denied code: 1012 nsresult: 0x805303f4 (NS_ERROR_DOM_BAD_URI) location: <unknown>]
Here's my code:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src=http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.10.2/jquery.min.js>
</script>
<script language=javascript type=text/javascript>
$(document).ready(function () {
$(button).click(function () {
$.ajax({ url: demo_test.txt,
success: function (result) {
$(#div1).html(result);
},
error: function (abc) {
alert(abc.statusText);
},
cache:false
});
return false;
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id=div1><h2>Let jQuery AJAX Change This Text</h2></div>
<button>Get External Content</button>
</body>
</html>
I've already read the following questions:
- firefox reading web page from local JS file -- access to restricted URI denied, code: 1012, nsresult: NS_ERROR_DOM_BAD_URI
- Error: [Exception... "Access to restricted URI denied" .... while calling $.ajax method
It was suggested that file system should not be used, so changed the URL to http://demo_test.txt, but that did not solve the issue.
I also heard that it might be because of a cross domain issue. If so, what exactly is meant by that, and how should I solve the problem?
