Okay, basically iam try to develop a security feature for php.
i need to send a filename over public key encryption, which is SSL in this case, NOT https so php's engine sends it over ssl, but what happens on the client end? will it panic when a PK data is sent to it? or would a client program be needed to hold the encrypted data would ssl not send the data to the client, the client hold it and when the server requests it off the client , the client would send it back itself, or is SSL based on client / server -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of David Schwartz Sent: 21 December 2004 19:49 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Is a client program required? > Hi, > > Lets say i get my application to send something, maby a file or data to a > clients machine over SSL as a PKI > > is there a client program required? Sounds like the client program your looking for is called a 'browser'. Internet Explorer, Mozilla, and Firefox are pretty popular. If that's not the answer you're looking for, try explaining in more detail what it is you're trying to do. Very specifically, what you expect to happen at the end where your application isn't running.
