Hi Christopher,<br>
<br>
Like you said, it turned out that the problem was a security issue.<br>
To those who don't know (like me), you can't access a host with your
browser and make
query on another. The point I was missing was that the same machine
with 2 different ports are considered to be 2 different hosts. It's a
simple explanation when you realize that. <br>
<br>
I learned too why the security exception in Firefox while I attempted
to make request (via Firebug) didn't show like I would have expect.<br>
That's a thing that really bothered me at the first place because I
would have expected an clear error from the browser.<br>
I have read that this kind of exception are treated silently in the
browser so it's normal I've seen nothing while I was debugging.<br>
<br>
Now everything is working well!<br>
<br>
Thank you for your supportt! :)<br>
<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
I confirm that my geoserver is working fine. I exchanged some emails on
the geoserver mailing list and they suggested me to try the preview maps
given by geoserver. They now integer the getfeatureinfo functionality in
the default previews.
So I tried there and everything worked fine.
but, now, if I copy the html code entirely without any modification into
my webpage, I won't work. The map displays fine and everything. But it
hangs on the loading message and never get response. I used Firebug to
track the bug and I remarked that the request is never noticed in
firebug when I click on a point. The loadURL function is called but not
the setHTML. It makes me think that maybe it's a permission problem.
Since it semms to work from geoserver itself but not from apache (which
my web page is on).
