I recognize that this question is not about javascript per se...it is
more about xmlhttp...posting the question at this site because it
appears as though this site has many posts related to xmlhttp
Situation is this:
1) making use of the COM object MSXML2.XMLHTTP in a client application
2) I use the open() method of the COM object and specify a "POST", then
I use the send() method of the COM object
3) when the url is an http url, able to send and then check the
responseText property without problems
4) when the url is an https url, the open() method works, but when the
send() method is invoked, it raises an exception with the error
message: "the download of the specified resource has failed"
5) when I use Google with searches such as "XMLHTTP", "https",
"download of the specified resource", I see that other people are
experiencing the issue, but I didn't see any solutions, nor did I see
whether there was a site (perhaps a Usenet group) on which it would
make sense to post this issue
Questions:
a) is there a more appropriate Usenet group on which to post this
question?
b) is it possible to use the MSXML2.XMLHTTP COM object in a client
application when the url that one specifies is an https-style url? if
so, how does one overcome the "the download of the specified resource
has failed" issue?
Thank you.
