Proxy Setting
Im currently using opera 7.0 browser, basically upon utilizing the automatic proxy configuration, (the field below is directed to the proper proxy address) im getting this message ""Automaticconfiguration failed, Proxy configuration is automatically disabled
for this session". Is there anything else im missing here nor alternatives
that needs to be done?

Proxy cont
Im using an online proxy. Granted this can be done manually, I have gotten this to work on IE6 -->Internet options--------------->Connections and under the heading of Dial up and VPN, click on settings. I clicked on the "Use automatic configuration script" and underneath that field, I typed the destination address.I did the same identical configuration in Opera 7.0 but have not been sucessful instead recieving that annoying add.

All that I have found about automatic proxy config is here: http://www.opera.com/support/search/supsearch.dml?index=332&session=08ffeec406d0bc6840c847c92c6a0a15
but it is not clear where to find the proxy.pac file . . .

MadGhigno: see http://wp.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/2.0/relnotes/demo/proxy-live.html for more information about .PAC files. You can use any local or server-based file for this.... as long as Opera understands the format.
reply .pac
Yes it is a .pac file, thats lame considering it wont accept it, one would think Opera would be more flixible as its advertised."If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear."

pacific99x -- PAC files written according to the original standards will work fine... its PAC files which use the syntax introduced by MSIE some time back which usually will fail.
In any case, documentation of these files is quite scarce -- the Netscape documented I posted remains the only authorative source I can find.

.pac issues
I see, thank you for clarifying and differentiating the standard and incompatibilites."If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear."

Opera 7.23 works well with local PAC files.
You can use HiProxy (http://hiproxy.com) to find and verify proxy servers, then automatically create PAC file for Opera.
