Re: Content parsing

Hello Mario,

I'm not sure whether squid has the possibilities to do a rewrite of urls, but
you should check out squidGuard (www.squidguard.org) which is a redirector for
squid. It has the capabilities to do a rewrite of urls (and many things more).

best regards
Oliver

Perhaps I wasn't clear... I know my english is poor, so i'll try to
explain a little
more.
I intend to use squid as a reverse proxy to access some web servers.
These web servers have pages with links to other sites, and i itend to
override
those links, all by means of squid.conf, for example:

# Link rewriting rules
rewrite www.somesite.com host.othersite.com
rewrite www.anothersite.com host.someothersite.com
...

and so on, the link rewriting should search for the pattern of the 1st
column and
replace it for the pattern on the second column, in all HTML pages.

Please let me know if i'm not clear.
Thanks
