Copied from [1]:
The quick answer is that because of cross-site scripting security built
into JavaScript engines in all browsers, you can't edit the content of a
web page from another domain. The foreign page will probably load
correctly and be visible in the test runner window, but Selenium won't
be able to query or edit its contents.
In other words, you can't run selenium on "foo.com" and run a test that
edits values and clicks buttons against "bar.com". So, in its current
form, you can't "script" google.com because your script isn't currently
hosted on google.com. When Selenium and the application you are testing
is hosted on the same domain, however, you do not run into the
cross-site scripting security feature/limitation.
You can read more about cross-site scripting here: Dev Articles [2]
