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
I finally seems to Get it working . Here is working Script
$("button").click(function(){
$.ajax({url:"http://localhost/demo_test.txt",success:function(result){
$("#div1").html(result);
}});
});
Workaround : put the html file and text file on local server (IIS) New Site .
