>So well... do you know what the PAC stuff works like? Perhaps it would >be worth to implement this? http://wp.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/2.0/relnotes/demo/proxy-live.html I don't think so. Essentially you have to parse a Javascript routine called FindProxyForURL. What's worse is this routine can call various Javascript functions that are assumed to be available. So you'd end up requiring a Javascript interpreter. Also it doesn't have to called proxy.pac, it's whatever the site wants to call it (so there can be different pac files for different groups), but the Content-Type must be correct. Which means you then need a means of specifying what the URL of the pac file is. Might as well specify the URL of the proxy directly. PS: No need to CC me separately, I'm on the devel list. |
