Subdomain Ajax script denied access to primary domain

[totalstranger]

Using an AJAX Javascript function that works fine if it's in the primary
domain www.arnb.org, but suffers from a security error when attempted
from a subdomain, thepatsyreport.arnb.org

In the subdomain HTML I have a base statement, and set document.domain
to 'arnb.org' with Javascript
<base href="http://www.arnb.org" />

Anyone know how to get around this issue or tell me what I'm doing that
is wrong?

Name of test page:
http://thepatsyreport.arnb.org/indexx.php
The error can be created by clicking on the find icon after a band name.
(Looks like a magnifying glass)

Errors from Firefox console.(original directory name changed to
xxxxxxxxxx) As expected this also fails in IE7, Safari, and Opera

Security Error: Content at http://thepatsyreport.arnb.org/indexx.php may
not load data from
http://www.arnb.org/xxxxxxxxxx/External4.php?B=144&Pfx=&UTF8&1219330078689.

Error: uncaught exception: [Exception... "Access to restricted URI
denied" code: "1012" nsresult: "0x805303f4 (NS_ERROR_DOM_BAD_URI)"
location: "http://www.arnb.org/xxxxxxxxxx/External.js Line: 35"]


Thank you
Arn

This is either a borken HTML fragment, or an XHTML fragment. It is
certainly not "Javascript", whatever you imagine that to be.

Anyone know how to get around this issue

You cannot, short of compromising your system's security.

The base statement is not javascript a-hole, anyone proficient with HTML
would know that.

That's what document.domain is supposed to get around, however is
appears after additional reading it only works with Iframes.

The problem with posting on groups like this is the a-hole/loosers who
choose to attack and diminish people who ask questions the
a-hole/loosers don't appreciate or feel they are above responding to in
a respectful manner.

Get a life.

You are officially plonked here, turd-blossom.

The `base' element is not a statement, as (X)HTML is a markup language and
not a programming language. Anyone with a minimum clue about (X)HTML would
know that.

While not exactly the word I was seeking, it seems to fit PointedEars
quite well.
