Hi I am very new to SSL,

Do you know how to use SSL with PHP?

Can someone give me a simple example?


Thanks

Oh 1 more thing

I am now using XAMPP latest version, It's running perfectly. My OS is windows ME (I don't know if SSL is affected by OS platform).

try https://localhost
or https://your_url_here.com

as far as php: php is php, ssl is just a secure wrapper.

Hm..........

By just write https://localhost I can use SSL capabilities from XAMPP?

HTTPS = SSL?

I have read SSL on PHP manual, It's contain many function that I don't know how to use it

yes, to the first part.
as far as the options available with php. the php documentation is rather good.

GREAT! https...looks like It's work. Thanks MAGnUm

Now How to use it?

I want to create An SSL secure login form (for learning purpose only).

MAGnUm can you give me a simple example?

ANyway thanks alot MAGnUm

Hm....just take a shot

to use ssl capabilities on a login form (like hotmail) all I need to do is fill tag form like this :
<form method=post action=https://verified_login.php>

is that right?

Can someone tell me more about this? Like how to buy a new ssl certificate and apply it on xampp?

try hotscripts.com they have all kinds of stuff. also it doesnt have to be secure, thats what ssl does it secures otherwise unsecure scripting.
