I have gone through this documentation, but I don't see how to do what I want to do. My goal is to have someone on a Windows machine running a program be able to transfer a file from the client workstation to my web server over HTTPS (but without a browser). With CURL, does the client need to run this app on their system? Of course, I would like this to be as simple and non-intrusive as possible. -----Original Message----- From: Rasmus Lerdorf [mailto:rasmus@php.net] Sent: Tuesday, April 24, 2001 2:25 PM To: Michael Conley Cc: 'php-general@lists.php.net' Subject: Re: [PHP] File Transfer over HTTPS > Bottom line- Is there a way that an application (not browser-based) can > transfer a file to my web server over HTTPS without going through the > browser?

There is a command-line tool called curl that can do this. See http://curl.haxx.se/docs/readme.curl.html -Rasmus
