    copied!<p>I'm just getting started on AngularJS and for some reason I'm having a problem. I'm running an http get query to the Last.fm API in order to retrieve similar artists to Caravan. I have tried the query on a web browser and it returns the correct XML response.</p> <p>This is my controller:</p> <pre><code>function ArtistsCtrl($scope, $http) { //artist: $scope.artist; $scope.getArtists = function() { $http.get('http://ws.audioscrobbler.com/2.0/?method=artist.getsimilar&amp;artist=Caravan&amp;api_key=MY_API_KEY').success(function(data) { echo(data); }).error(function(data, status, headers, config){ echo(data); }); }; }; </code></pre> <p>And this is my view: </p> <pre><code>&lt;!doctype html&gt; &lt;html lang="en" ng-app&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;meta charset="utf-8"&gt; &lt;title&gt;My HTML File&lt;/title&gt; &lt;link rel="stylesheet" href="css/app.css"&gt; &lt;link rel="stylesheet" href="css/bootstrap.css"&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div ng-controller="ArtistsCtrl"&gt; &lt;button ng-click="getArtists()"&gt;Get artists&lt;/button&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;script src="angular.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script src="angular-resources.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;script src="app.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre> <p>The problem is that when I click on the button and it executes $http.get, it throws the following exception and never returns any data. </p> <pre><code>[Exception... "" nsresult: "0x805e0006 (&lt;unknown&gt;)" location: "JS frame :: http://localhost/AngularJS/angular.js :: createHttpBackend/&lt; :: line 9409" data: no] http://localhost/AngularJS/angular.js Line 5764 </code></pre> <p>Anyone has any idea about what could be the problem? Thanks. </p>
