Combining Alias & Search Engines - Guest - Sep. 27, 2008 06:41 PM
I'd like to unify the alias system & search engine between the 2 browsers (Firefox & IE)
I've noted that the alias header may be useful here but it requires users to add a dot or other symbols before it
In = FALSE
Out = FALSE
Key = "URL: Alias Redirector (Out) {1}"
URL = "[.,-]$LST(AliasList)"
I know I'm a bit picky but is it possible to remove the need for adding a symbol before the keyword/alias?
Tried changing URL to $LST(AliasList) but it's not working.
Thanks

I notice two things here:
You have both In and Out set to FALSE - that sure won't work!
Also, this has been attempted before, with equal lack of success.
As I understand it, the reason is that Proxo uses that single dot as a prefix (or the double-dots, like src.. or dbug..) only when it's looking at the address bar. The part of Proxo that's looking for those prefixes isn't built to look for them in Outgoing Headers.
Simple as that, sorry to say.
