I know this ACL. However managing the ACLs statically is not the same as dynamically. Managing squid.conf or any squid.conf formatted file is kinds of an issue when using a web ui. It's much easier for me to handle a sqlite/mysql table for that. If I set the times to static ie by the hour ie 0-1 and 1-2 and 2-3 coupled with the day, it's pretty easy to handle. And if the web ui is simple enough you can manage the times on the fly with a margin of error by a minute. It's kids not a business so it's enough for my use case. I just need to allow them to surf or block them as needed and also in a planned matter. There is another factor which I have considered and it's a timer based external_acl helper. A helper that will check for the current state and then allow or deny based on the timer and in time the scheduler will send a command to the timer.
