Stops working with Firefox 3.0.6 and Safari

Hey all,
I searched around for hours for a solution to this, and finally found one, so I wanted to post it here in case anyone else ran into this problem.

While typing out all of my location url's for css, html, and js, I had inadvertently forgot to put a www in the location of the xinha folder while the locations for the css and html was to a www.mysite.com.  This causes the browser to think it's a cross-site scripting attack and will not allow it.  Specifically, this added security bonus that will not allow HTMLDocument.body or .open permission as seen in the js error console.  I found this in the new update of firefox, and it also happened in safari.  See the link below for more details and a better description of the fix.

Sure,
If you use external files for any css or javascript, they must point to the EXACT same location.  For example, if you have a css file point to:
     <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://www.myurl.com/css/stylesheet.css" />
Then you must point xinha to the same place:
     _editor_url  = "http://www.myurl.com/xinha/"
not
     _editor_url  = "http://myrul.com/xinha/"
without the www.  Also, if you have any external js where you use the full url, make sure that is the same also.
  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.myurl.com/xinha/XinhaCore.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.myrul.com/xinha/my_Xinha.js"></script>

Changing these to match worked for me.
