i guess your experiencing the "same origin policy" problem here, which lets you only load data/whatever via ajax from the same origin as the calling page! it seems that the origin isnt just the domain but also the used port.
so to make this work you could either use a "new" http header field which will only work in firefox 3.5+ (http://www.petefreitag.com/item/ 703.cfm) or you have to make your call with "JSONP" (http:// en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON#JSONP). i believe jQuery natively supports jsonp, never used it though.
