After editing the proxy.pac file, I would suggest that you reboot the iphone and be patient.
Also check and make sure your APN is set correctly to wap.voicestream.com
Most of the time it takes a few attempts (initially) to get T-Zones working.
Start by trying the Weather app, then try the Stocks app.
THEN try Safari.
Once you get data flowing, you should be set.
Good luck!
thanks for the continued help - much appreciated.
ok, so i have a new, possibly bigger problem:
tried to uninstall the old hack, reinstall it and then make sure proxy.pac was exactly was you had it. somehow during the process something must have happened, and now after uninstalling and reinstalling the hack, when i use cuteftp to ssh i can no longer see proxy.pac at all. in private/var/root (where i used to see proxy/pac) i have 'library', 'media' and 'smartrss.txt' and that is all. could it have gotten deleted somehow? if so, what do i do about that? can i get it back somehow?
apologies for all the questions, but i'm trying to learn my way through this stuff. thanks.
EDIT: ok, so i found proxy.pac on my hard drive from my earlier attempts at this (before i edited it), and so i dragged it back into private/var/root. that should do the trick for that problem, right? now to edit again and try to get the data flowing.
