On this basis, if I utilize the following command...
open secure socket to "whatever.com" with message "openedOK"
... Revolution will return back some sort of error because
Revolution cannot access the Certificates that are pre-installed
with Internet Explorer,
I always forget that part. :-)
Once upon a time, there was a ".pem" file that was distributed with
Rev (perhaps only distributed in an alpha/beta version when secure
sockets were first introduced). Setting the sslcertificates property
to this file would allow Rev to handle the certificate
authentication. I can't find that file on the machine I'm at at the
moment, but I seem to remember it no longer worked when I last tried
it. But you may be able to find a suitable file somewhere that can be
used. Perhaps someone else can help.
meanwhile IE will validate the certificate and return an "OK"
result (provided it is OK).
On the other hand, if IE encounters a bad or unknown certificate,
then some sort of error message will come up anyways. IE will
automatically take care of the issue and lead the user where they
need to go.
A reasonable assumption, I think.
Cheers
Dave
