Can you perhaps rephrase what you are trying to do? The way I interpret what you are asking may be much simpler than what you really mean to do. To "accept" an HTTPS POST only requires that your Web server is SSL-enabled. There is nothing special you must do. For example, a PHP script can print out all posted data like this: print_r($_POST); This simple example also replies to the remote site (over SSL) that sent the HTTPS request, since that's where standard out goes. Basically, since SSL lies between TCP and HTTP, by the time your PHP script gets the data, there is really no difference. The difference is in the Web server, not the code (unless you want to check whether the current connection is SSL). As for sending a POST request to a remote site via SSL, just check out cURL, which also has a convenient PEAR package.
