Does that work in general? That depends. If the FORM ACTION URL is https.. it works. Just changing the address to https will usually give the same page as http. The page itself will be transferring using SSL, but your submission will not, if the action is not. Well, actually if the action just uses a relevant page (like ../cgi-bin/script.pl) then I think it would use SSL. But if it specified http://domain.com/cgi-bin/script.pl then it would not work. Correct me if I'm wrong. _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
