Re: Automatic Proxy Configuration

I'm just guessing here, 'cause it's the wee small hours, and I'm not going to look
things up.

Try changing your script to:

function FindProxyForURL(url, host)
        {
            if (url.substring(0, 5) == "http:")
                 return "PROXY proxy.swh.sk:3128;"; // Note the extra semicolon in
the quotes
            return "DIRECT";
        }

Now, if you get the 'server does not have a DNS entry' alert, then you _know_ that
the url.substring condition _failed_.
If it did, then you should start exploring why that function failed. I'm led to
understand that only a limited subset of functions are available in this function.
Maybe you should use shExpMatch() instead.

Did you read the documentation AND the FAQ?
If not, I'll probably still answer your question, but my patience will
be limited, and you take the risk of sarcasm and ridicule.
