Common
Link Filter List
The
Link Filter List
section looks like this:
Using this section, you can add URLs to the Link Filter List and edit them.
To do this, use the area labeled:
•
Add new URL
Select
String
or
International Domain Name
from the first of the drop-
down lists provided here.
In the input field next to it, enter a string to specify the object using shell
expressions.
Select
International Domain Name
if you want to enter non-ASCII char-
acters and the string should be used for the domain part of an URL.
In some countries like Germany, Sweden or Japan, domain names with
non-ASCII characters are allowed.
The IDNA (International Domain
Names in Applications) standard describes how a Web browser should
convert such a domain name into pure ASCII notation used, e. g. by DNS.
Webwasher uses the pure ASCII notation as well, therefore all IDN strings
must be converted. This is done automatically when you select
Interna-
tional Domain Name
and enter a string with non-ASCII characters.
Note that you can not use shell expressions with IDN strings.
Furthermore, use the following items when adding a new entry to the list:
—
deactivate
Enable this option to insert a new URL in the list that will not yet be
used for filtering, however.
