The sockets extension is a much "lower" level interface to sockets than the fsockets/stream_ functions in PHP. Unlike with the aforementioned, with the sockets extension, you can't just expect to magically get an ssl connection by using "ssl://". Your problem is that the sockets extension has no idea what you mean by "ssl://"; and since "ssl://foo" is clearly not a valid domain name, resolution fails. Short Answer: use fsockets if you need SSL ;)
