Firefox 3.6.6 doesn't load remote javascript files

more options

Hi, I've written a jsp which loads some javascript files from another machine (host). However, Firefox doesn't load the files from this host. Instead, it forces a local search (on my machine) and - of course - fails to find them. The other host is located in the same intranet as mine, and both are behind the same firewall, so no security concerns which might cause Firefox to act this way. I'm able to load the javascript files using Google Chrome. Also checked by typing the URL in Firefox's address bar and was able to get the file. Also tried working in Safe Mode, but still failed. Is there a way to configure Firefox to load remote javascript files?

Operating system

Windows XP 2002 SP3

My original code didn't appear in the question. Here it is (removing html triangle brackets):

script type="text/javascript" src="http://host_name:port/path_to_file/js_file.js"
