Unfortunately, if you don't have CURL support and you can't change that, you may be out of luck. HTTPS support requires CURL and OpenSSL, and in the future at least OpenSSL. I would speak with your hosting provider and see what they recommend. Perhaps they can add in CURL and OpenSSL support.
If not, you may need to change providers. :) Jaime > -----Original Message----- > From: Ben C.
