Keep in mind the socket stream( both input and output) that are  used
inside of any browser JVM( plugin or embedded) are allocated and opened by
the browser for the JVM.  Therefore from
within the browser you don't need anything like "HTTPSUrlConnection" , you
just use the standard
HTTPUrlConnection , all encryption and decryption is done before and after
you read or send data). However if you plan on developing standalone Java
applications that
will talk the HTTP deamons the support HTTPS (SSL) you will need some
sort  of
HTTPSUrlConnection support.
