this may help you : http://www.w3.org/TR/XMLHttpRequest/#the-open-method
Take care of the fact that the browser actually handles the call. If the
credentials are not correct, you may be prompted with the austere
browser's login window.

In this case, you should be able to get the servlet's context from the
application's context attributes:
getApplication().getContext().getAttributes().get("org.restlet.ext.servlet.ServletContext").
