I am using CakePHP "HttpSocket" class to post information to a Paypal payments server. My code is working fine when the target URL is http://www.something.com, I can parse the response as I would like.
However, when I am trying to post data to PayPals payment API URL (on HTTPS) I get no response whatsoever.
I have tried the same code on other HTTPS URLs, again no response.
What is the reason for this problem?
