I can load an "https" URL fine.

I can load an "http" URL protected using 'basic' authentification, using either the "http://user:[email protected]/"; format, or by using the HTTPHeaders property to explicitly add an "Authorization: Basic xxx" header.

But I can't load an "https" URL that's protected using basic authentification, using either of the methods described above.

Is this a known problem? Can anyone else either reproduce this problem, or alternatively confirm that they _can_ load such a URL?

(NB1 this is on Mac OS X, Rev 3.0 and 3.5.)

(NB2 I can retrieve the URL fine using "curl" in the terminal - and in fact for now I'm working around the problem by using shell() to invoke curl. But I really want to handle URLs of this form in the same way I'm handling other http URLs in my app, which give me more control.)

Any insights gratefully received,

TIA

Ben
