title: PHP script returns error/nothing when fetching data with AJAX
body: <p>I have a PHP file called 'myProxy.php' sitting on my server that looks like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;?php
   echo "text";
   exit();
  ?&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>When I try to get that string from the file with an AJAX call that looks like this: </p>
  
  <pre><code>$.ajax({
      url: "http://www.mydomain.com/myProxy.php",
      type: "GET",
      success: function(data) {
       alert("Horray!");
    }
   });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>The script turns absolutely nothing and I get a red error icon in the Firebug console. Does anyone know what might be causing this? Perhaps a setting is not set somewhere?</p>
