[OpenLayers-Users] Access to restricted URI denied" code: "1012" when added WFS

[Ingo Weinzierl]

Hi Sasky,

the WFS layer uses the XMLHttpRequest object to fetch its data. If you try to 
request the data from a remote host, you get into the problem of the Same 
Origin Policy [1], which denies loading data from remote hosts. To avoid 
this, you will need to set up a proxy on the host your site is running on ( 
see [2]). I hope this helps.

Regards, Ingo
