Question Making a proxy browser

[Haxaro]

At school, they have a proxy that stops students going to certain websites: hotmail, facebook, youtube, myspace etc.

If i was to develop a simple webbrowser that goes straight through a proxy service (Unblock Facebook Proxy Site - UnblockFacebook), how would i be able to make it just like any other browser, except the information goes straight through the proxy server?

thanks

I dont recommend that site; it screws up web pages. Try BBC - Homepage in it and out of it

To answer your Q:
you'd have a web browser control
and a text box
you'd read the source of unblockbook.com
find the FORM that is submitted
work out the query string to submit
tell the webbrowser contro lto navigate to that address


If you cannot get the form data by reading the source, use Fiddler. If it changes all the time, you got more of an uphill battle

Haha. i see what you mean -> but found a better one: http://proxify.com/

And as you said, i would have to look for the source, because its not like google, and i can just paste in the Google *Search Term*

So just have the url bar navigate through the proxy searchbox... mm.. interesting.


although, how can i use the source:

<form action="http://proxify.com/p/011010A0000110/x/start" method="POST" name="proxy">
<label for="url" title="Enter a Web address here"><input type="text" autocomplete="off" id="url" name="url" size="66" class="txt"></label> <input type="submit" value="Proxify" class="sub"><br>

any ideas would be appreciated
