I happens to find that, when a live space page is loaded, inline images are fetched by https protocol instead of http protocol. This doesn't make sense. The text part of live space is not fetched by https, why images are fetched with https? I bet the https way to fetch image just make the page loaded slower. Is there any special advant...
I'm trying to add authenticating proxy support to an existing script, as it is the script connects to a https url (with urllib2.Request and urllib2.urlopen), scrapes the page and performs some actions based on what it has found. Initially I had hoped this would be as easy as simply adding a urllib2.ProxyHandler({"http": MY_PROXY}) as an ...
Hi, I'm setting up a custom e-commerce solution, and the payment system I'm using requires me to send HTTPS POSTS.

(Both jQuery and the .js file I'm using are included in script tags in the head element.) The "Submit" button calls a function created in the C# code behind file that makes a call to a separate JavaScri...
I've seen many tutorials online that says you need to check $_SERVER['HTTPS'] if the server is connection is secured with HTTPS. My problem is that on some of the servers I use, $_SERVER['HTTPS'] is an undefined variable that results in an error. Is there another variable I can check that should always be defined? Just to be clear, I am...

Is anybody out there using Cast Iron to work with PayFlow Pro? We are trying to download our daily transactions and dump them into an Oracle database.

I suspect the Do not save encrypted pages to disk security op...
