Argument from ignorance. As I said, in the best case it is basically one line that needs to be added to an .htaccess file: (Usually you would not want to forward all requests, so you would also prepend a RewriteCond.) > and possibly the legal situation.

I am not a lawyer either, and not only have I said so, I have also not implied anything about the legal situation with this solution yet. However, since transparent proxying of *all* resources is standard practice (several ISPs do it in order to increase the quality of service they render to their customers), I find it difficult to believe that this solution, with this use-case, could constitute a copyright violation. >>>>> There is no javascript. >>>> ??????????? >>> See the reference to the “ES Matrix” in my signature. >> >> jpg >>
