RE: Alpha config, possibly
'About:blank' popups occur when clicking on an article link at http://www.debka.com/index1.php while the main page continues to the article. I think this is because the page is coded to open the article in a new window. Blocking scripts results in the same behavior. This happens on my system in IE6, FireFox 1.5.0.12, Opera 9.21 and Opera 9.64. My log files show nothing. The same problem occurs with the February 13th config. Not sure if this is something that should be included in a general config but I thought it should be mentioned.

RE: Alpha config, possibly
Ahh yes. As long as this is the only site we know that uses "New" as legit link target name, i prefer an entry in Exceptions.ptxt:
Code: www.debka.com/ $SET(0=a_target.) However, should that happen elsewhere as well, i'll change the respective filter. |

RE: Alpha config, possibly
Thanks Sidki. That works and I have not seen any other pages like that one. Just wondering if it is possible to set an exception that would allow the page to work normally. That is to have the link open in the same window without a popup. If not, it hardly matters.

That isn't implemented, but it's an excellent idea! ![]() (Block all popups on listed sites, without popup blocked notification, which would be annoying.) Will holler if-possible/when-done. |

At least I am not totally wrong on the entry position arrangement tricks. ![]() Anyway, I prefer the blockfile being hashed so I will stick to you "Each URL expression must match only once!" rule. |

Okay, it's included with alpha 2. ![]() New section in Exceptions lists: Code: ## block popups silently even on link click $SET(0=i_popup_b:2.) www.debka.com/ currently being the only default entry using it. |

RE: Alpha config, possibly
In a couple of Log-Rare submissions the referer field is always empty. It's supposed to be only empty if the Flash plugin was causing the hit. I need this link to the originating page.
Can you please set up your browser to not suppress the "Referer" header, while testing this alpha? (Suppressing it also turns off a bunch of third-party restriction routines.) TIA. |

Hi,
Using latest alpha config, I get the following on any Youtube page : Quote:Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe's Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player. No Flash Toggle anywhere. ![]() EDIT: I reverted to the previous alpha, and it seems the problem is there also, probably youtube pages have changed in the way they implement the flash code.... |

RE: Alpha config, possibly
Hmm... but Proxomitron is closer to the browser than the router/firewall for outgoing traffic. Unless a firewall is also manipulating local traffic, or if running Proxomitron as LAN proxy in shared access mode...
