 | Clyde Annach | TCPIP Socket and SSL on Tue, 28 May 2002 08:52:22 -0400 We need to open a socket to a secure web site (one that is using SSL), send a request for data and then recieve the response. SocketOpen does not seem to work when you throw https:// in front of the URI. It fails to connect if you put http:// in front of the URI as well. It returns a Host Not Found error. Removing the http(s ) allows for the connection. We have looked into LoadFromURL, but we need to send and recieve HTTP packets. Is there something I am missing? Our code follows: default cDoc to "index.html" default cHostname to "www.proteledata.com" default nPort to 80 default nError to 0 cDoc := "GET /"+AllTrim(cDoc)+chr(13)+chr(10) nHandle := SocketOpen( SOCK_STREAM, cHostName, nPort, @nError ) SocketSend( nHandle, cDoc ) SocketRecv( nHANDLE, @cBUFFER, 4096, MSG_NORMAL ) -- Clyde Annach Senior Programmer Analyst Professional Teledata, Inc.

I will explain further once I have resolved them and clarified them myself.
