Andre,

Thank you so much for your response. I'm afraid I was a little unclear as to my intentions. I am implementing altBrowser into one of my projects, and unfortunately, altBrowser does not return whether IE knows if the server is secure. I'm looking for a way of determining this within Revolution so I can display that on the screen.

I just looked over the built-in documentation for SSL and couldn't find much other than the encrypt and decrypt functions. I need a way to determine if the url that altBrowser is looking at is actually secure.

Any ideas? :)

Derek,

if the certificate is not valid, the SSL library will return you an error. Actually, in some cases, it returns an error even for valid certificates... I don't know if you can find the certificate information from inside Rev, if you are using MacOS X then you can use cURL or some other unixland tool to query the certificate data but I never tried that.

PS: I simply feel like answering emails today... :-)

Does anyone know how to determine SSL authenticity. For example, if I'm connected to "https://www.somedomain.com/securepage.php";, other than the "s" after http, how can I find out the certificate information?

Or do I just trust the fact that since the "s" is after "http" that it's secure?
