Since we can't see what $toolkit_method has in it, I can't say whether this is the problem, though. If you specify https://, you don't need the port as HTTP_Request will automatically use the default HTTPS port. Try putting an "echo $request;" in to make sure that the protocol is https. > Many thanks > > christo > -- DB_DataObject_FormBuilder - The database at your fingertips http://pear.php.net/package/DB_DataObject_FormBuilder paperCrane --Justin Patrin--
