Flemming, are you using the same version of rebol and are they on 
the same platform at home as at work ?

Geomol, that is a known bug in ssl, see RAMBO #3532, it is interesting 
to know that it affects HTTPS with proxy

Geomol, can you post the corrected version of prot-http.r somewhere?

Perhaps on the REP site ?

Or, Rebol.org ...

Off topic here, but what do you have to do to create an external 
link on  a web page so that a new browser instance loads. Do you 
need some javascript on the page?

just add target="_blank" in the <a> tag

<a href=http://www.rebol.comtarget=_blank>Rebol</a>  ?

correct

Great!

once second - the quotes aren't there.

targe="_blank"

is that the same for the action of a form ?

hmmm..

Apparently so.

it should if the action is redirection to another page using the 
<a> tag.  But I'd need to look it up to be certain.

Yes, it works :)

It does in Opera, at least.

Including 'post' forms.

Yes, I just changed my header analysis lookup form to use this ...

Graham: I'm not sure, if the copyright on prot-http.r prevent me 
from posting it, but I can tell you, what I added to it. My work-around 
consists of 2 extra lines after line 46, which in my version is:

append http-packet "^/"

My extra lines are:

replace/all http-packet "^/" "^M^/"
remove back tail http-packet	; Because a newline will be added.


It's not a nice solution, but it works. A better way would be to 
open the port with a /with refinement and CRLF. See RAMBO #3532.

ok. thanks.

You're welcome! :-)

Does anyone know away to automate the checking of a website that 
requires https, authentication and probably cookies. I basically 
want an application to log into my ebank account and extract some 
information.

jaime you probably need to dig into what protocol your ebank uses...the 
most common ones are HBCI and OFX  ( i think =D  )

Thx. I will check this.

that was for OFX/QFX

I think Jaime wants to know how to get the data first !

OOps.. Ok  sorry  jaime =(

OK.  what's the secret to getting plugin working in IE 6?  I've read 
how IE supposedly doesn't like embed tags, but that isn't true insofar 
as I've been using embed only for SWF files.  Same with SVG.

When I try the samples.  they all fire off the download, etc.  install 
seems to work, except that I always end up with red x, and nothing 
ever runs.  Just wondered whether anyone ever figured out what was 
up with that, or whether there was any momentum at all with rebol 
plug-in.  I'd probably rather have an active-x/progid sort of affair, 
but talk about a can of worms.  I've never done it, but looked into 
it.  seems like it may not be such a big step, though, if there's 
been success with browser plugin.  This is all sort of an aside. 
 I didn't really have anything particular in mind, except as maybe 
an Ajax alternative.

There isn't normally a problem with IE6.

you're right.  worked first time today.  I had encountered it again 
through someone else's site, but when I went through rebol.com, it 
worked fine.  very good.

it could have been pointing to an old binary

I'm not expecting any new plug-in releases until LNS is out and other 
builds are done. Don't know about momentum, but I'm using it for 
a project and it's pretty darn handy if you ask me.

I've been in awe of it since I got it working.  IE has been my primary 
platform for a long time now.  Spent quite a bit of time building 
a working asynchronous http client with IE's xmlhttp, but now am 
wondering why I bothered.  Rebol makes me nervous and excited about 
the implications.

In IE there are cross-domain issues.  Does this plugin adhere to 
these settings?

I think not, it does its own networking like rebview.

that is fantastic.  I'm starting to shake a little.  beyond all expectations. 
 talk about power to the people. . .  I'm off to do some crazy prototype. 
 I'll post a link when I get something wild cooking.

It's not stable, so you will come across some weird crashing bugs. 
Also, only one instance of rebol plugin per browser is possible.

security features are not enabled either as far as I know, but it 
has great potential, yes

try [probe secure query]. you can only access the rebol cache-directory 
IIRC. but net is not restricted.

Net is going to need restricted, I think, and cache probably needs 
some restriction as well.  I wonder if there's been any discussions 
on how to keep rebol from being the target for some very malicious 
code.  I know more about IE's security model and what I can do at 
IE defaults, and would like to code such that I am not relying on 
features that can/should/will be restricted by default.

I think it is a matter of "Safe for Scripting" which would need to 
be a safer subset of the full view.

I guess I should build a .r that is restricted to this safe subset. 
 I think I basically want to accomplish a web page that is obfuscated 
peer to peer instant messaging.  I see rim as an example.  Is there 
anything about rim that could not be accomplished within a safe-for-scripting 
subset?

--no events-- 
,LaunchURL =    // PUT String 
,bgcolor =    // PUT String 
,ScriptVersion =    // PUT String 
,args =    // PUT String 
,LaunchURL;// GET String 
,bgcolor;// GET String 
,ScriptVersion;// GET String 
,args;// GET String

I know about evaluate for doing DOM stuff from the .r script, but 
what about the other way around?

Does anyone have experience with NetApp NetCache proxies? http://www.netapp.com/products/netcache/

My REBOL solution calling services over HTTPS works ok with the Squid 
proxy, but not with NetCache. Any ideas?

This may be the problem. http://www.rebol.net/cgi-bin/rambo.r?id=3532&
