In that aspect - it doesn't matter. i'd personally choose netscape because of their good track record and conformity to standards. M$ does things their way or the hiway. Both browsers use the RSA libs from rsa security, so as far as algo compatibility thier both the same. i think that i'm going in circles.....but to get to my point - as far as ssl is concerned thier both the same. personally if your worried about sniffing then use netscape with the 128 enc pack. what about PPTP? have you looked at that for a solution.? ~kurth
It's been my experience that Netscape doesn't support mistakes as well as IE (example...forgetting a close td tag or close table, stuff like that), so usually if I build a page, I use Netscape to check it and it almost always works the same in IE. As far as php and ssl goes, isn't that all server stuff? I'm kinda new at the server end, so this is a good question for me 2. Is it going to be an intranet page with the company only using one browser? If not, it should really probably be made to work in both browsers equally well. my 2 cents.

I would like to standardize on one www browser so that the help desk people only have to be knowledgeable about one browser. The users all have MS Win 95, 98, or NT. The quality (ie. the 'bug-free-ness") of the browser's SSL code is very important. What browser should I choose?
