Do you have a proxy setup? Javascript can not load from a different
domain than the one from which it was loaded. getFullRequestString is
trying to load from metacarta.com, but the page came from fluxnyc.com.
Setting up a proxy on fluxnyc.com is a work around, or serve the
feature info layer from your own domain (usually a better practice).
