.. well, I got this running for local pages. But what I want is doing the same thing 
for proxy requests.

- user is configured to use internet access by proxy
- user wants to surf to www.example.net
- user needs to log into my server
- the authentication should be SSL encrypted
- my server looks up in its config, where this user is allowed to serve to
- server returns page or error

my problem is, that I cannot get the browser to do that..
