Hmm - must take a look at that - essentially I'll need to be able to say "Use this proxy for a.b.c, d.e.f & x.y.z otherwise go direct" - can a pac script set that up for commonly used browsers? >What you can do is to deny the request with a error message telling the >user that his proxy settings is not suitable. Yes, but that won't fly - I can't ask the users to turn off their proxy when they want to go to other sites. >There is no code in HTTP where the proxy can tell the browser to go direct >(or to use another proxy). I didn't think there was, unfortunately. Regards, Niall P.S. Henrik copies this reply to me and the list, but yet I got three copies of it. This has happened to me before - any ideas?
