You'll need a JavaScript interpreter. A PAC file contains a JavaScript function that is run _per_URL_ to decide what proxy, if any, to use for that particular fetch. Clearly you can't get a static proxy description in the general case. -- Cameron Simpson <c...@zip.com.au> DoD#743 http://www.cskk.ezoshosting.com/cs/ Look, Dave...
