[OpenLayers-Users] Requesting data problem

Sat Apr 17 07:15:22 EDT 2010

Hi all,
I want to get WMSGetCapabilites from server. The URL is
http://labs.metacarta.com/wms/vmap0?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS and
works fine.

But when I "execute" the next code the request never ends or returns me a
empty response.

Anybody can help me clarifiying me how to get wms capabilities and later get
the available layer names?

Thanks in advance.

        <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8">
        <script type="text/javascript" src='./js/ol/OpenLayers.js'></script>
        <script type="text/javascript">
            request = OpenLayers.Request.GET({
                url: "
http://labs.metacarta.com/wms/vmap0?request=GetCapabilities&service=WMS",
                success: function(request){
                    alert(request.responseText);
                },
                failure: function(request){
                    alert('BOOOOOO!');
                }

            });
        </script>

    </head>
    <body>
        the body content
