What port is your HTTP server that you wrote listening on? AJAX requests 
are subject to the Same origin policy 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Same_origin_policy I believe if your HTML 
is served by Apache on port 80 but your HTTP server that you make an 
AJAX request to is on a different port it would be considered to be a 
different origin and the browser would block it. You can get around Same 
origin policy by using JSONP.
