Hi, We're experimenting with a reverse web proxy server from Netilla, and it fails to work with InterMapper. Large sections of HTML don't make it through the reverse proxy, notably the image map information (which makes IM's web interface a lot less useful).
Here's what the Netilla tech has to say: "The Intermapper application has a bug in it which is inserting null bytes into the HTML it produces. These null bytes are causing problems with the reverse proxy translation engine because we represent the HTML we receive as a string, and a null byte indicates the end of a string, which causes the parser to exit prematurely. " Using curl and BBedit's Hex Dump feature, I was able to verify that there are null bytes (ASCII "00") in the HTML output from IM. More details on request. Would it be possible for this to be fixed? I don't know if it's actually a bug or not to include null bytes in an HTML stream, but it does cause a problem for us. I would like to be able to use the reverse proxy feature to get a more secure connection to InterMapper's web interface from outside.
