Sorry, I dont know the OpenGeo suite or Geoexplorer, it might best to 
take it up with them.
GET doesnt use the proxy - doesnt need to. You need the proxy to deal 
with cross-origin security issues when using XHR. (ajax). if 
ProxyHost="/proxy..." this implies you have a /proxy context on the 
server. "../proxy" looks more likely - but /proxy/?url doesnt look like 
a valid syntax. Is there a proxy directory or script at the same level 
as your main html on the server?

The important thing is to look at your server set up. See where the 
proxy code actually is, what it is, and then make sure the client 
matches it. It is common to use cgi with Apache but I know next to 
nothing about this as deploy with tomcat and use a jsp for proxy.
