I am very interested in this subject as I to prefer some functions with
HTTPS.  Until then I use my IIS server for all HTTPS fucntions. Anybody got
the scoop on this as its important in my opinion for RT overall stradegy.

Subject: [REBOL] Reading encrypted pages with REBOL??? Re:


No, we use https:// all the time for many EDS web sites
but No, rebol cannot use read on https:// or
you cannot use load/markup https://

Also, https:// can be used for all types of html data,
not just e-commerce credit-card entry forms.

However, you can use:
read or
load/markup http:// which is very useful for "re-purposing data"

Holger has commented on this before, and it sounds
like it will "be-a-while" before rebol/core has the
ability to read https:// (secure pages).

Subject: [REBOL] Reading encrypted pages with REBOL???


One of our customers using the /Command order forms I wrote
(https://abooks.safeserver.com/orders/command.html), wanted to read the form
into REBOL, i.e.:

a: read https://abooks.safeserver.com/orders/command.html

It never occurred to me that anyone would want to (since the forms were
designed for browsers) and, of course, it doesn't work since REBOL evidently
cannot read encrypted web pages yet. Or can it? Is there a way to access the
https format?

Thanks,
