One option is to proxy GeoServer with Apache.

http://geoserver.org/display/GEOSDOC/How+to+proxy+Jetty+through+Apache+on+port+80

Though the title references Jetty, it is relevant to setting up a proxy 
to any domain:port.

Basically, you want /geoserver (or other path) on the same origin as 
your application (or page.html).  Same origin means same protocol (e.g. 
http), same domain (e.g. example.com), and same port (e.g. 80).
