It doesn't work for me.
I have entered the PAC script.
Should the tick be green? I can't confirm anything.
What am I doing wrong?

... For me it must be "*.example.com". Then it works.

No. :no: What about that here:

For me. it works as it should.

No. No green. Just insert the PAC script code! You won't get any confirmation messages. :no:

I really don't know what you are doing. All a bit strange. :P

"example.com" is completely sufficient and exactly corresponds to the URL which you wanted to load. :yes:

I actually think what he's trying to do is for
   one.example.com
   two.example.com
   three.example.com
   www.example.com

and what you are proposing will only work for
   example.com

@Anbima didn't say anything about that. If one doesn't make clear announcements, one can't expect to get exactly the information one needs. We are not clairvoyants. :P If the PAC script contains a different URL than the one you want to call up, you don't have to be surprised that it doesn't work. :buehehe:

Yes, that is the problem.
With "*." all third-level domains are recorded.
Can several different domains be entered in the IF query, or do I have to make a separate query for each domain?

I had to create for each domain a separate, new IF query otherwise it wouldn't have worked in my installation.

You can shorten it a little:
if (shExpMatch(host, "*.example.com")|shExpMatch(host, "*.google.*")|shExpMatch(host, "*.wetter.com")) {

But it is very confusing.

However, I have noticed that it sometimes causes problems if the website integrates external content that does not have SSL.
In this case, the external website must also be recorded.
I'm thinking about running all pages via the proxy after all :-)

However, the following sentence from the developer unsettles me:
Be aware and careful! Use a direct connection when you don't want any mistakes made.

Is the proxy not secure, or what does this mean?

Which developer do you mean? Please, be a bit more precise! If you mean the extension developer, I assume he warns the user not to misconfigure the Proxy Switcher extension and not to use unsecure web proxies.

Which proxy do you mean? If you mean ProxHTTPSProxy, this local proxy is as secure as Windows XP and direct connection is.

That should be the developer, right?
https://github.com/wheever/ProxHTTPSProxyMII
Do you trust it?

All @heinoganda's, @Thomas S.'s, @cmalex's proxy versions and also my packages of ProxHTTPSProxy's PopMenu are based on whenever'ProxHTTPSProxyMII. All of them can be considered secure, of course. Or do you think I would offer here unsecure proxy packages? :dubbio: And first of all, credits to the original developer whenever.

Do you always use the proxy, or only occasionally?

There is no need to use ProxHTTPSProxy for all internet connections, even in Windows XP. Mypal 68, 360Chrome, ThoriumSupermium and all @roytam1's browser editions are capable of the TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3 protocols. However, the proxy is actually only needed for those programmes which are not capable of these protocols but need them in these days. Same applies to WU/MU, for example. Therefore, I use ProxHTTPSProxy only occasionally when really needed. And such cases happen, of course. Which sites do you need this proxy in 360Chrome for? Which sites appear to be unsafe for you in 360Chrme:dubbio:

Personally, I would now just use Thorium or Supermium to access such sites on XP if security there was an issue for me.
:yes:

There are more and more sites for which 360Chrome does not support the protocols.

The only example you gave is a website where the user has to register. You said: "...more and more sites...". So please list here examples of websites which appear unsecure in 360Chrome and do not need any registering! Thanks :cool:

I have tested Supermium and it needs so much memory, which is not available.
Does Thorium need less memory?

For pages that I only want to view, it doesn't matter whether they are encrypted or not.
I only have concerns when I have to log in or enter data, as is the case with the example mentioned.

With https://www.deepl.com/translator for example, I don't care whether it is encrypted or not.
