On behalf of a client we were redesigning a website hosted on a competitor's webspace. While the client didn't want to move its webspace to our servers the updated website required extended functionality not provided in its current webspace. Thus, we came to a compromise by hosting the website locally on our servers but keeping domain etc. located on existing webspace. All requests to the competitor's webspace had to be forwarded then and so we needed some proxy application to be installed there.
As a result PHP.Proxy has been implemented. This single PHP script file is being uploaded to a webspace. In addition a rewrite engine is configured to redirect all incoming traffic to that script which is then forwarding every request to some other URL. Responses are passed back to the requestor and thus simulating availability of responding site under the proxy's address.
In addition this proxy is capable of managing it's own set of cookies keeping them off the real client. Finally the proxy is adjusting links and form action URL in returned HTML documents so succeeding requests are made over proxy again.
The current release of PHP.Proxy is available in download center.
