Hello to list,

I want to block pages based on the content of the
pages.
Like if any webpage contains the word "proxy", squid
should block that page. Does squid blocks pages based
on "content" or i have to use any third party tool
like Dansguardian ??

Please guide me on this topic.


My general advice:
  If you have any choice in the matter. Stay away.
One of the most annoyingly frequent questions is "why can't I see ... through squid?" when URL-content filters are in use. If you are required to do so, be very reluctant to add filters without a LOT of testing. The best-seeming rules can block wide areas of unrelated information.

Specifically:
Squid can block/allow pretty much anything you like in the header information, and some other. If its HTML page content you want to filter, you will need additional software with Squid-3 ICAP, eCAP, or other adaptation services.
