I'd like an example of how to catch this exception.

  FWIW, WebKit trunk doesn't raise this exception yet, opting for a
temporary XMLHttpRequestException code. My feeling is that  
interoperability in this area will take a while to achieve.

I think there's general agreement that it should take ExceptionCode 18 on  
DOMException. You should be able to catch it as follows, fwiw:

  try {
    ...
  } catch(e) {
    switch(e.code) {
      case e.SECURITY_ERR:
      ...
    }
  }

if I haven't mixed up the syntax of the switch case construct in some way.
