Created in order to make using the University of Texas at Austin's library proxy system simple. The default settings use UT-Austin's ezproxy system, though the extension should work for any similar system. This can be used by UT-Austin students to load journal articles easy when off campus.
The extension reloads a page, say http://mywebsite.com/mypage as http://mywebsite.com.<proxy>/mypage
Use the extension options to change the proxy address.
This work is not official for UT-Austin in any way, shape, or form. I just use their proxy a lot and wanted a fast way of loading journal articles at home for my studies.
v1.2: Still defaults to http, but adds saved option for http, https, or pass-through protocol.
v1.1: Now defaults to http (instead of https) for all sites (needed for UT's system).
Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
