What are the different ways to open an HTTPS connection from within a script and receive back the response into a variable? I know CURL can do it, and PHP 4.3 with OpenSSL can use fopen() to do it. Can sockets be used at all with PHP 4.2 to get the page or maybe a system call to a simple program to do it? This is going to be on a Win2K machine. Thanks for any info. ---John W. Holmes...
