I don't really get why leaving the 'www' prefix out of an address
#1 still leads you to the site you're trying to get to
#2 but breaks certain javascript functions

I'm building a shopping cart with php/mysql/javascript and ajax. I'm using ajax to update item quantities, but when I leave the 'www' out, and the script tries to write the updated price to the page, permission is denied.
