It should work. Supposedly SSL should not matter, as all the SSL
details are hidden in the transport layer below your HTML transaction.
OTOH, IE and mod_ssl have known problems. You can find possible
solutions in the mod_ssl faq.
There should be no difference between data that comes from a database,
flat file, or enbedded in the program when it is sent to the browser.
Once it is sent there should be no way to tell where it came from.
Here are three questions you need to answer. You should be able to
determine the problem once you know the answers to all three. If not,
post again and maybe we can help.
It does not work with Internet Exploder, does it work with other
browsers?
It does not work with SSL connections, does it work with non SSL
connections?
It does not work from MySQL, does it work with data embedded in the PHP
program?
