Sounds like cross-site scripting. By default, JavaScript (JS) is prevented from calling servers other than the origin server that served the initial page.
Is you JS trying to call a different server?

Subject: [WEB400] Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin for web services
So far, I like what I am seeing with web service servers.
Next issue: the web service provides the JSON data properly formatted when it is accessed by the URL in a browser. However when I go after the same URL with a JavaScript application it tells me "Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin violation" and suggestions for changing the Apache server..
That looks to me like "Beyond this there be dragons." I have neither the knowledge, desire, nor the authority for this. I am suspecting therefore that I am misunderstanding what needs to be done. I believe I am concerned with "XMLHttpRequest()"?
Suggestions?
