... last changed in gecko 1.8 (firefox 1.5 / thunderbird 1.5 / seamonkey 1.0) inherits from: nsisupports attributes attribute type description failoverproxy nsiproxyinfo this attribute specifies the proxy to failover to when this proxy fails.
...if a nsiproxyinfo is reported as failed via nsiprotocolproxyservice.getfailoverforproxy(), then the failed proxy will not be used again for this many seconds.
... next nsiproxyinfo proxy info objects may be chained if several proxies could be treated equivalently.

Proxies in Necko
this means that callers can just create an nsichannel, not needing to worry about whether the channel will use a proxy or not the basic interfaces for proxies are: nsiproxyinfo, nsiprotocolproxyservice, and nsiproxiedprotocolhandler nsiproxyinfo is a simple helper which stores information about the type of the proxy, its host and its port.
...it first asks the nsiprotocolproxyservice for an nsiproxyinfo.
... depending on the type of the proxy info, it either asks the http protocol handler or the protocol handler for the requested uri for a new channel with the nsiproxyinfo - if the channel supports nsiproxiedprotocolhandler.

to access the service use: 861 nsiproxyinfo interfaces, interfaces:scriptable, xpcom, xpcom api reference, xpcom interface reference this interface identifies a proxy server.

Observer Notifications
http-on-opening-request similar to http-on-modify-request, but called earlier (synchronously during the channel's asyncopen() call), and some channel attributes (proxyinfo) may be missing.

nsIHttpChannelInternal
proxyinfo nsiproxyinfo get the proxy info in use by the channel.
