Hello everybody,
�
I read an email on the web that sent by Joe Cooper on January 16th, 2001
about Inline content modification. I encounter a same problem and I thought
you could help me. 
�
I intend on modifying the content of the web sites arriving at my Squid
proxy. I want to replace the advertizing banners with images that I keep in
a database. The goal is to write a redirector, which can modify the web
sites� content (replace the image and the hyperlink as well) and return the
modified file from my hard disk, pointing a url in my apache server. 
�
As it was expected, the relative paths used in the original content were
preserved in the modified file and the client then asked for the files from
my apache server. I think that this is a problem with the headers. What I
want to achieve is to tell in some way the squid to search the asked files
back in the original server. 
�
I want to find a solution that doesn�t force me modify the code of squid. I
want to limit myself in writing a good redirector in perl that does string
matching of the fetched content, altering the img tags and the hyperlinks
behind them. I just don�t know what to do with the relative paths. I mention
that I parse the HTML content with Perl�s library HTML::TokeParser. 
�
If you have any ideas about how I can solve the described problem, please
let me know.
�
Thanks!
