sidki's config set: 2005-06-09 - sidki3003 - Dec. 15, 2004 10:50 PM This is the 6/9 release. Reusing the 12/15 thread. I've uploaded a new version of my config set (cross-post). I wish to especially thank three people who helped a lot with the last versions: Mona contributed a bunch of ideas and code, ProxRocks tested the betas high and low, and JJoe applied his excellent editing skills to the docs. Here is the change log since April 2: Quote: Small external ad scripts aren't broken anymore, but their content is Snippet from the ReadMe: Quote:This config should work with all Gecko Browsers and IE clones > 5.5, Opera 7.x ReadMe - Config (onsite link, 262 KB) - Updates - Online FAQ - Homepage. sidki RE: sidki's config set: 2005-06-09 - ProxRocks - Dec. 16, 2004 12:01 AM Quote: I wish to especially thank two people who helped a lot with this version:Thanks for the thanks, sidki... The testing 'high and low' has been extremely fun - and I even learned quite a bit myself in regards to the inner-workings and whatnot... An awesome "brainstorm" of sidki's that I'd like to point out is the manner in which this new release handles https sites... In essence, the new handling methodology cuts encryption/decryption time in HALF because after Proxo decrypts it, it "converts it" to an http site (observe the address bar when browsing https sites) that is then passed 'down the chain' to your browser (which now does not need to decrypt it again)... My explanation isn't as good as sidki's, of course... As I have a limited number (more than one but less than two [dozen]) https sites with log-ins, I extend an additional invitation to try out the new methodology on your https sites... In closing - congratulations sidki on another fine release -- u da man! - mozerd - Dec. 16, 2004 02:00 AM In running the new sidki config I now get the following message when I link to http://ragingbull.lycos.com/cgi-bin/static...txt&d=mainpages Require SSLEAY32.DLL and LIBEAT.DLL This was not happening with the previous sidki config. So far the above URL is the only one that generates this request. ??? Thanks. - sidki3003 - Dec. 16, 2004 03:41 AM Hi mozerd, make sure to read the ReadMe, it's important, really. Quoting the appropriate paragraph: Quote: Added "Half-SSL", Based on filters by Scott, JarC, and JJoe.Thinking... maybe i should mention this under "Installation" as well... sidki - mozerd - Dec. 16, 2004 11:43 AM sidki Thank you. I did skim the readme file but I should have been much more attentive. [blush] And thank you for producing yet another fantastic config - sidki3003 - Dec. 16, 2004 01:40 PM Actually, that note was somehow buried within the changelog. I added it to "Installation" now. Thanks for the heads-up! And good to see that you like the set. sidki - z12 - Dec. 16, 2004 06:13 PM Hi sidki I just downloaded your new config. A quick glance reveals I've got a lot of learning to do. One thing I noticed in ProxFunctions.js is the browser sniffing code for mozilla uses document.all. Just wanted to give you a heads up that firefox (& maybe mozilla too) now supports document.all. I've been using "window.addEventListener" for checking w3 compliance & "window.attachEvent" for checking if ie. No doubt theres a better way, but it seems to be working for me. I look forward to studying your config. Thanks for posting it.

But the devs where clever: document.all support is limited to undetected calls, which means that the browser will accept a call to document.all from a script that didn't care to detect it before, like "document.all.myID". Along with a message in the JS console, that you just left W3C standard. However, an explicit test like "var prxDAll = (document.all) ? 1 : 0;" does return 0, and will - fortunately - continue to do so, from what i understand. Here is the matching bug btw. Quote:I look forward to studying your config.And i'm looking forward to hear your comments. Feel free to post anything that comes into your mind. (It may take some time tho for me to respond since this board is more than shaky atm, at least from Europe.) sidki RE: sidki's config set: 2005-06-09 - z12 - Dec. 17, 2004 10:14 AM Hi sidki Quote:document.all support is limited to undetected calls, Ahh...I didn't know that, I should have known you had that covered. I've had a chance to briefly look over your filter set. LOL, I feel like a proxo newbie. I'm not sure I'll understand how half those filters work, or even what they do, no matter how long I look at them. It's really most impressive. Mike - sidki3003 - Dec. 17, 2004 11:31 AM Impressive == Complex LOL Seriously, it's a pain! It's in the first place because the filters depend on each other and test things like: "are we within a script" or "has this code been processed by another filter before". I wished i could simplify things more again. Like a friend of mine said: "Going back from complex complex to simple complex" What i do when troubleshooting a filter is cutting back the peripheral code like the log lines or the lines that store the info that gets printed to the footer, to get to the core. Hey, you may like the JavaScript shell in the Prox menu. It works in the context of the current page. The browser thinks it's called from a relative path ("/local.ptron/.../shell.html" HeHe), so there are no cross-site restrictions. It has Tab completion. Try for instance typing "p" followed by a TAB. sidki - sidki3003 - Dec. 28, 2004 11:35 PM The release is out. I've updated the first message in this thread. Changes since the pre-release: bug fixes, improved help docs, restructured IncludeExclude list, third caching option: "Always Cache except for HTML" <- z12/Mike sidki PS: It would be great if this forum wouldn't loose posts. It might not be apparent, but posting can consume a lot of time. RE: sidki's config set: 2005-06-09 - Kye-U - Dec. 28, 2004 11:42 PM Quote:PS: It would be great if this forum wouldn't loose posts.

Quote:Require SSLEAY32.DLL and LIBEAT.DLLthe old configs [sidki and the last Kye-U] didn't quite work on gmail if I allowed "use Open SSL to filter secure pages" in "HTTP" in "config" in "proxomitron" [phew!] hopefully, this is resolved now? - sidki3003 - Dec. 29, 2004 05:11 PM The set - as it comes out of the box - runs fine with GMail in IE and Moz/Fx with "Use SSLeay/OpenSSL" activated. Opera 7.6 alpha hangs at times - no matter if Prox is active or not. You don't need to check this option tho, just the DLLs need to be present. But don't complain then if you're seeing ads there, okay? sidki - no13 - Dec. 31, 2004 11:20 AM hey... put it out in bold that you released a new set... I didn't get it for about 3 refreshes....[23hours or so] |
