Hi Sasky, the WFS layer uses the XMLHttpRequest object to fetch its data. If you try to request the data from a remote host, you get into the problem of the Same Origin Policy [1], which denies loading data from remote hosts. To avoid this, you will need to set up a proxy on the host your site is running on ( see [2]). I hope this helps.
