That is one problem. The PAC file is supposed to define a fully formed
function like so:

function FindProxyForURL(url, host) {
  if (isPlainHostName(host)) return "DIRECT";
    return "PROXY squid_fqdn:8080";}

You also need to ensure the web server is producing the HTTP response
with a "Content-Type: application/x-ns-proxy-autoconfig" header or it
will fail.

see <http://findproxyforurl.com/> for more info about WPAD/PAC.
