All:

I have a question that I'd like to run by you.  I subscribe to cable 
Internet that doesn't allow web servers to be run on port 80, so I'm 
using another port to run my web content.  However, there are some 
business and government facilities that block all web ports except 
for port 80.  That makes my web content unusable from those sites. 

What I've done is use PHP to catch each request to a publicly access 
subdomain to my main web hosting account (NOT my home web server).  
That page then takes whatever page the user asked for and queries my 
home system on the web port that I setup.  Thus, the request to my 
home server is all done behind the scenes.  

I'm using the include() function to perform the call to my home web 
server.  It's all working perfectly.  But, is there a more efficient 
way to do this?  Essentially, I'm making my own proxy server. 

Thanks.
