Helo, This is the first time I have cared about httplib's HTTPSConnection.
In the docs I read "Note: HTTPS support is only available if the socket module was compiled with SSL support." Although my small test script "seems" to work when connecting to a webserver via HTTPS I am really not sure. In other words it worked the first time. I never trust anything that seems to work right the first time. ;-) My question is how can I tell if the criteria in the "NOTE:" is met? How do I know that the socket module was indeed compled with SSL support? The reason this is important is that I am building a credit card payment system. Here is my little test script ======================== Python 2.4.3 import httplib conn = httplib.HTTPSConnection('**********') conn.request('GET' '/index.html') resp = conn.getresponse() page = resp.read() print page -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
