Prox filter editor issues
edit by sidki: split from http://prxbx.com/forums/showthread.php?t...1#pid12441
<a> Remove: Ad Links 7.11.29 [sd] (d.2) I always got a "Syntax Error" message box when I press the Test button in the test window. Does this mean the filter is never effective? |

RE: sidki-config: Feb 13 2009
Probably. That can happen if you've edited the config file directly. Get a fresh copy from sidki_oob.ptron.

RE: sidki-config: Feb 13 2009
The same thing happened on sidki_oob.ptron.
Is this the proper way to add in AdHosts.ptxt if want to remove a bad link like: <a href="http://www.badurl.com/">link text</a> Code: www.badurl.com $TST(\3=.) Code: www.badurl.com $TST(\9=[/.]) |

The filter name might be a bit confusing. It's just about linked objects, a.k.a. banners. In contrast to the "Remove: Ad Images" filter, which targets images that aren't linked. |

Could any one else check if you have the same problem?

No, there isn't.
Regarding your "Syntax Error" i have *really* no clue (besides wild ones like your patched exe or Chinese input system), sorry. |

RE: sidki-config: Feb 13 2009
I just had an idea. Maybe your system font is converting characters with accents to something else?
Snippet from the filter code: publici(dad|te|té)|werbung|sponsored (by|links+)|a(dvertising|nzeigen+)(^?) If so, then you would have the same problem with a couple of other filters, like "<div>... Remove/Hide: Ad Containers - Headers". If that's the case then these filters are *not* broken for you, they only get mangled on edit/test, by the font. The Proxomitron GUI patch that i offer for download uses Andale Mono as preferred fixed font type (IIRC that change came from Henk's GUI). Hopefully you don't have problems to edit/test those many filters beginning with øþø or similar, like "Top Sniff: Sel. File Types". |

I should have attached the snapshot earlier but I had thought you could reproduce that on your side, sorry syntax error.png (Size: 5.63 KB / Downloads: 580) |

RE: sidki-config: Feb 13 2009
That's the standard message if something in the editor isn't quite kosher.
Mona is using Andale Mono too: Code: 109 DIALOGEX 0, 0, 324, 206 You do have that font installed, right? |

RE: sidki-config: Feb 13 2009
Confirmed to be problem of mizzmona's PtronGUI patcher. The problem disappeared after using back the original version.

RE: sidki-config: Feb 13 2009
Ahh okay. Yet, not everyone using it seems to be affected.
Does the same problem appear with Henk's or my patch? |

Thanks. Perhaps that's getting further attention at some point, so i'm going to split this topic now.
