RE: [PHP] POST to port 443 (SSL)

[Jon Farmer]

Ermm  you are missing SSL encryption. You can't just try and talk to port
443! You have to use something that talks SSL to talk to port 443.
fsockopen() does not talk SSL.

Hello,
I am trying to use the UPS Online Tools, the XML version. This requires you
POSTing an XML document to their Tools server, which is SSL enabled. I am
having a problem getting this to connect in PHP (4.0.6) on my server (Apache
1.3.20). In my scripts, I use
$Socket = fsockopen (www.ups.com, 443, $errno, $errstr);

if (!$Socket)
die (Error bla bla bla);

fputs ($Socket, GET /ups.app/xml/Rate HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n);
...
...
If you point your browser to https://www.ups.com/ups.app/xml/Rate you will
see a response. But this code seems to just time-out. If I change the port
443 to port 80, I will get a response. What am I missing for it to talk to
an SSL port??

The ability to 'speak ssl' instead of plain text

You should probably use the curl functions to do your post via SSL, or some
other tools if using the curl funcs isn't suitable for you. Incidentally,
you're doing a GET anyway when you say that the server requires a post.
