Description petr 2002-10-15 17:09:04 UTC
Description of Problem:
Mozilla goes via proxy even if it is directed to go direct.

How Reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. set proxy autoconfig file (see example)
2. try to access page that shall go direct

Our proxy autoconfig file (proxy.pac) looks like:

function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
        if (isPlainHostName(host))      return "DIRECT";
        // nae adresy pxmmo
        if ( isInNet(host, "62.77.73.0","255.255.255.128") ) return "DIRECT";
        // ostatnm pxes proxy
        return "PROXY ns2.ryston.cz:3128; DIRECT";
}

and even the headers seems to be correct:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Tue, 15 Oct 2002 17:05:06 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.27 (Unix)  (Red-Hat/Linux) mod_ssl/2.8.11 OpenSSL/0.9.6b
PHP/3.0.18
Last-Modified: Fri, 19 Apr 2002 14:18:30 GMT
ETag: "203087-fc-3cc02736"
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Length: 252
Connection: close
Content-Type: application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig

If I enter url http://test.ryston.cz/ which resolves to 62.77.73.65, mozilla
goes via proxy, not directly as expected.

We use the same autoconfig file for long time, it works correctly with all
verisons of Netscape 4.xx, IE5.x, 6.x, Mozilla 0.9.x, 1.0.x, 1.1, 1.2b on
Windows platform.
