Hmm... Let me explain this way: I assume each feed is an outbound http request. What I need to need to do the following things before the request is sent. 1. determine if it's internal site (by parsing URI). 2. if it's an internal site, I need to include a special cookie in the request header. 3. if it's an external site, I need to apply the proxy server setting instead. Now I am a newbie in PHP but I will be supprised if this can do be done quickly in PHP. Looks like this hook is not going to do it, am I right? Also I need to know how to access the feed request object so that I can do my things.
