"Remote" javascript

[Aaron Fude]

Hi,

We are struggling getting a gwt example work on our machines. Rather
than describe our entire problem we'll ask a more generic question
that is sctricly about javascript.

Namely, if there is a webpage with javascript (e.g. http://gawkat.com/UrchinTracker
) and one copies the html page into his server tree, and readjusts the
embedded links to the absolute .js files - should the page continue to
work?

WIth the http://gawkat.com/UrchinTracker example, it doesn't it. What
is it about javascript that causes is behavior.

Thanks,

Aaron

Not necessarily. The "same origin policy" (google it) for security
could be causing problems, for example.
