Hi Chris,

I'm behind a proxy myself and can confirm that provided you specify the proxy and port it'll work fine.

>From my config:

// Configure the proxy for geocoding
$config['http_proxy'] = "<REDACTED>.au:8080";

I'd say they've not opened up a connection for you. Its also worth mentioning that if you're using Google you'll be limited to 2000 requests per day and will need googleapis.com to be allowed through the proxy.

Regards,
Matt.

I think mike added proxy options to the geocoding stuff. I'm not sure though, I've never used them.

Look in the config options.
