I'm trying to load a Javascript file which contains an array of data using .getScript().  It works fine on my server, but the request is never being made when I run it on my own computer, though the callback function is called.  Is this an inherent limitation in JQuery/AJAX, or am I doing something stupid?

Here is the relevant code:

2. var data = []; // To be defined in data.js
4. $(document).ready(function() {
5. $('#button').click(function() {
6. // This should load the file specified in the text box, but I'm just trying to get
7. // something to work at this point
8. $.getScript('data.js', function() { alert('done!'); });
10. //...
11. });
12. });
13. 
    
14. ...
15. 
    
16. <input type="text" size="30" value="data.js" /><button type="button" id="button">Load Data</button>

Thanks in advance for any help!
