i have a small java program that goes and accesses a web page. (used the URL class) the java program works fine, but how do i force it to use a proxy server. I mean when i run the java program via the command line it goes and fetches the http web page as mentioned in the arguments java test http://www.xyz.com one can configure one's web client browser to use the proxy server and all the accesses are routed via the proxy server. can someone let me know as to how to do i force my java program to use a proxy server ? the second problem is about the contents that are donwloaded. if it is a plain simple page with text and gif files it is fine. but if the page has some class files then these class files cause a lot of exceptions etc as the contents are being (tried to be interpreted by the via the command prompt) Any way this problem is secondary and the first one is how to route the requests via a proxy server. thanks john __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
