Hi all: This is regarding Medline queries in Pybliographic (1.2.4). I'm jacked into my Institute's LAN which blocks outbound packets on port 80 (http), allowing access to the Internet only via a proxy server. My question is: can Pybliographic be made to use proxy servers in order to do Medline queries? This is, of course, assuming that the Medline query function requires port 80 (which I assume it does). I've tried looking in the help documentation and on the web but couldn't find any information. If this can't be done, can it be implemented in the next release? Maybe a configurable option in Preferences that allows you to specify the proxy host and port. Or maybe even get Pybliographic to use the shell's $http_proxy environmental variable. -- Haran Sivakumaran | Brisbane, Australia ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: YOU BE THE JUDGE.
