Ok I though this is interesting?
Just reading through that 1.2 Beta stuff,
http://squid.nlanr.net/Squid/urn-support.html

It says to try them.
But what happens if you are using a Proxy Autoconfig file?
well Netscape spits out the error!
if I put them in by hand - well squid spits out the error as a html page!

Any thoughts on this? as It isn't much use making things easier for users.
Giving them a autoconfig URL to stick in instead of explaining with has to
be done. As well as the convince of specifying exactly what happens in one
file and it changes the settings on all the www browsers.

The messages from Netscape is
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------
| URN's not internally supported, use a HTTP proxy server:
| urn:menu.squid.nlanr.net
+---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Not much use with that problem
