It doesn't seem to be the same origin policy...The code I showed above is
from an HTML file in the www directory, and I am providing the feature info
popup with a url of 'http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms'. When I check
firebug, nothing comes up in the console window. It's like it doesn't even
make the attempt to send the request to Geoserver and I really don't
understand why not. Even more so because when I provide the popup with the
url of
'http://localhost:8080/geoserver/gwc/service/wms<http://localhost:8080/geoserver/wms>',
an request is sent but of course nothing is returned since there is no data
there. I really appreciate your feedback Justin :), if anyone can suggest
anything else that would be great too since I still cannot make sense of
this behavior.
Thank you,
elshae
