      When NS6 is used with automatic proxy configuration,
      any url can not be opened.

      Tested with NS6 and j2re build 1.3.1beta-b13 and reproduced on solaris8 sparc, solaris7 x86, Windows98 and RedHatLinux6.2J.


      To reproduce,

      Go to the url blow and excute test case 2 for auto proxy using file and
      test case 3 for auto proxy using http with NS6.0.

      <NOTE>I use the automatic proxy configuration file including the lines below located at http://javasoft.japan/~tokunaga/eng2.pac for our enviroment.


      function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {

              return "PROXY webcache:8080";
      }


      Tested with NS4.7 and j2re build 1.3.1beta-b13 on Solrais7 x86 and Windows98:

      1)Using http, a dialog comes up and says as below;
      The automatic configuration file is not of correct type:
      http://javasoft.japan/~tokunaga/eng2.pac
      Expected MIME type of application/x-javascript-config or application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig.
      Use the configuration from the previous session instead?

      2)Using file, NS4.7 works well and java applets can be excuted.
