Javascript help required

We are not familiar with js coding so require some help, at the moment we have the coding working but only if the .js file is called up from the same domain that the main coding is located on, but it just displays a blank page if called up from another domain... any ideas on what we have to do to get it working on any domain?

Here is the .js file

subid = "eecca5b6365d9607ee5a9d336962c534";
uname = "xmlsite";
width = "100%";

if (window.XMLHttpRequest)
  {
  xhttp=new XMLHttpRequest()
  }
else
  {
  xhttp=new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLHTTP")
  }
xhttp.open("GET","feed_java.php",false);
xhttp.send("");
xmlDoc=xhttp.responseXML;

title=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("title");
voucher_code=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("voucher_code");
affiliate_url=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("affiliate_url");
merchant=xmlDoc.getElementsByTagName("merchant");
document.write("<table width="+width+"><tr>");
for (i=0;i<5;i++)
  {
  link=title[i].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
  url=affiliate_url[i].childNodes[0].nodeValue;
  document.write("<td width=20%><a target=_blank href="+url+">"+link+"</a>");
  document.write("<br />");
  document.write(voucher_code[i].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
  document.write("<br />");
  document.write(merchant[i].childNodes[0].nodeValue);
  document.write("</td>");
  }
  document.write("</tr></table>");

Here is what we are using to call it up...

<script type="text/javascript"
  src="http://webservices.icodes.co.uk/test_ads5.js">
</script>

Here is the output from an external domain... (doesn't work)

Here is the output from the domain also hosting the .js file and other main files (works fine)

full url here at a guess m8 should fix it

xhttp.open("GET","feed_java.php",false);

Poo soz m8 looks like a security issue you can't do it

You can't do an xmlhttp cross domain - as you've probably realised :-)

We actualy had the full url in there orignally but still no luck... so we changed it to what you are seeing now.

But just incase we tried the full url again and no joy!

Could it be our server blocking something / setting needs altering, or just thought.. could it be anything to do with the files located on the sub domain (not sure why that should make a difference as the webservices works fine from it)

Cheers

its a browser security issue m8 not your server the browser blocks the request because it comes from a different domian.

If I can think of a way for you to acheive the same result I will shout you.
