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:





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?

Browser security prevents the code from running. You are better off running a local server such as IIS or Apache.



You can change your browser to run local content by changing a browser config



Firefox




  1. Go to about:config

  2. Find security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy parameter

  3. Set it to false
