Use "host" instead of "myhost" and

^^^ you might consider deleting this line^^^

http://www.netscape.com/eng/mozilla/2.0/relnotes/demo/proxy-live.html states:
isInNet(host, pattern, mask)
host ... a DNS hostname, or IP address. If a hostname is passed, it will be
         resolved into an IP address by this function.

and localhost should always be "127.0.0.1"

If you want, you can take a look at our current PAC:
