JQuery / AJAX: Cross-Origin Request Blocked
<p>I have the following script (simplfied) that grabs some data from a local php file:</p>

<pre><code>$(document).ready(function(){

  var current_date = "x=y";

  $.ajax
  ({ 
    url: 'work/get_cal.php',
    type: 'post',
    data : current_date,
    async: false,
    success: function(result)
    {
      alert('never gets this far');
    }
  });

});
</code></pre>

<p>However I get a cross domain error, even though everything is on the same server.  Has anyone had this issue before?</p>
