Well, in June 2004, I suppose HTTP::Proxy will support working in a man in middle manner, so this kind of thing should be quite easy to do. (I have yet to understand how to use Net::SSLeay, though.) In fact, you can already use HTTP::Proxy to see inside a HTTPS connection: set HTTPS_PROXY to point to your HTTP::Proxy proxy, use env_proxy with your LWP::UA object. LWP::UA does a GET https://www.example.com/ to the proxy, which will fetch the data with SSL, and return it in a plain (cleartext) HTTP session. So that you don't have to change your debugging habits when asking for https URLs. -- Philippe "BooK" Bruhat "Did I err?" (Groo, in too many issues to count - ...and *YES* he did!)
