In wordpress there are some simple variables that can be set to make the configuration of a navigation proxy server trivial.
var $proxy_host = ""; // proxy host to use
var $proxy_port = ""; // proxy port to use
var $proxy_user = ""; // proxy user to use
var $proxy_pass = ""; // proxy password to use
Are there any equivalents to accomplish the same for joomla? I've been searching on internet and couldn't find anything.
