Hey Josh.. actually I just discovered the WinInet functions and they are capable of posting to HTTPS. I have already written code for this and it works great. I appreciate the help though.
Thanks!
Ian

Well, I haven't implemented POST in my HTTP client yet, but I have done
GET, and it works over raw sockets or SSL. If you already know how to
establish an SSL connection, you're done -- just use the SSL read and write
calls instead of the sockets calls. Otherwise, I suggest you look at the
cli demo program for a minimal implementation. If you'd like assistance
with writing a program that works with either SSL or raw sockets (or any
other kind of socket) transparently, I have code that does this -- let me
know if you're interested.
