Error in open

[Person]

I'm trying to open up a connection in javascript for a GET request, but I keep getting the following error:
[Exception..."'Permission denied to call method XMLHttpRequest.open' when calling method: [nsiDOMEventListener::handleEvent]"' nsresult: "0x8057001e (NS_ERROR_XPC_JS_THREW_STRING)"
location: "<unknown>" data:no]
does anyone know what this error means and how I might be able to fix it?

Hi,

The object XMLHttpRequest should be used by creating an object of this XMLHttpRequest. This is an browser dependent Object. After that you should call open method with the object name. You are using The XMLHttpRequest directly. pay attension on it.
You can use following code for help

<script language = "javascript">
var HttpObj = false;
    if (window.XMLHttpRequest) 
    {
        HttpObj = new XMLHttpRequest();
    } 
    else if (window.ActiveXObject) 
    {
        HttpObj = new ActiveXObject("Msxml2.XMLHTTP");
 
    }
 
    function getData(dataSource, divID)
    {
        if(HttpObj) 
        {
            var obj = document.getElementById(divID);
            HttpObj.open("GET", dataSource,true);            HttpObj.onreadystatechange = function()
            {
                if (HttpObj.readyState == 4 && HttpObj.status == 200) 
                {
                    obj.innerHTML = HttpObj.responseText;
 
                }
            }
            HttpObj.send(null);
        }
    }

I'm doing that almost exactly. The only difference is that I'm setting a request header in my code. I'm thinking it's the url I'm trying to establish a connection to that's the problem. I'm trying to get information from google spreadsheets, specifically the url: "http://spreadsheets.google.com/feeds/cells/o11550855343635452373.7973043625436209949/od6/private/full".
If, based on this information, anyone could help me I'd very much appreciate it.
