Comment This could work in one of 3 ways none very good (Score 1) 182

1) a true swf to html5/JavaScript engine on the fly - believe that when I see it running

2) slurps out any rtmp url's it finds doing dynamic conversion to h.264 - won't work with sites using dynamic logic inside swf to assemble resource URL

3) virtual machine on server running flash which then streams result to iPhone - huge expense for app owner

Plus not sure sites using rtmpe like hulu would work

1) Install Wikipedia software locally and use this for any locally created articles

2) The web server running this simply proxies out to en.wikipedia.org for that request if not available in the local version. The easiest way to do this is with Apache + rewrite rules

This means that users can get to articles locally and on wikipedia from the same command

You then need to consider the following

1) The search request needs to go to the local version of wikipedia then the external one and concatinate the results together - a small proxy script should be more than capable of doing this

2) You may want to create a reference table which maps external wiki articles to related internal ones. Again a small script could insert these into the external wikipedia articles during rendering

Voluntary for ISPs but not for their users, ISPs representing over 94% of the market are already intending to join. Read the general FAQ and technical FAQ about the proposed Netclean Whitebox implementation."
