From the bundled help files: o No Proxy for: Type the domains that you do not want to use a proxy for. Separate each domain with a comma. (Example: .yourcompany.com, .yourcompany.co.nz) * Automatic proxy configuration URL: Choose this if you have a proxy configuration file or URL, then type the configuration URL. Domain names are the part of a URL that contains the name of an organization, business, or school—such as netscape.com or washington.org. If you use local host names without the domain name, list them the same way. Use commas to separate multiple host names. The wildcard character [*] cannot be used. I think the Auto Proxy stuff got lost. Also, the last paragraph is kind of out of date, follow the link on this page to "Advanced Preferences | Proxy" to see what the current feature description is. (Why do we have two sections that are almost identical anyhow?)

Looking at this further: Search help files for "proxy" and get 4 hits. "proxy" - glossary definition "proxy preferences" - help file for prefs panel "Setting Proxy Values" "setting proxy values" - dupe entries for a subsection of "Browsing the Web". The last section (which I think is a needless dupe) is the content I am quoting here.

Created attachment 228658 [details] [diff] [review] Clean up somewhat the references The duplicated content is still there, and I think it should stay so, because the paragraph in nav_help will get you started on using proxies with the browser, while che advanced preferences are explained in another file. This patch cleans up the index and remove a useless contentbox & h1 heading for proxies, adding that paragraph to the "improve speed and efficency" chapter of the nav_help.

If you were to move it, having taken away an entry in one chapter, you will need to add an entry to the contents box for the chapter it goes in.

Or the missing entry in help-index1 (removing the one about proxy)? Anyway, if that chapter doesn't fit, I guess we should just point to the prefs settings, bringing over the few missing text paragraph from nav_help (about organizations and the explanation of the use of domain names). Just my €.02...

Comment on attachment 443508 [details] [diff] [review] Remove duplicated section patch v0.2 <h1 id="proxies">Proxies</h1> <div class="contentsBox">In this section: <ul> - <li><a href="#setting_proxy_values">Setting Proxy Values</a></li> + <li><a href="#using_proxies">Using Proxies</a></li> </ul> </div> <p>This section explains how to work with proxies.</p> -<h2 id="setting_proxy_values">Setting Proxy Values</h2> +<h2 id="using_proxies">Using Proxies</h2> One thought: How about keeping the <h1/>, removing the whole contentsBox, paragraph (kind of wrong anyway, since we don't explain how to work with proxies here) and secondary heading? Or having "Using Proxies" as a main header? I'm in the middle, but it feels kind of an overkill having an index for 1 section...
