One way to work around this limitation (a security measure in web browsers
known as the "same origin policy") is to use an iframe to embed the feature
info HTML in your popup. If you want to use more advanced techniques this
won't work; you can't (for example) fetch the featureinfo in GML and
manipulate it with client-side code this way.
If you use those more advanced techniques, you could use an HTTP proxy
(apache's mod_proxy will work fine) to make both services appear to be on
the same port; just proxy both your local Glassfish and your remote
webpage. Check out
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/mod/mod_proxy.htmlfor details.
