    sending https request

    Hi All, any one can help me ...


    I am writing an application which sends a https request to the server.... and gets the response from that server

    I am writing this in 'C'

    this is the actual URL ;

    https://bidsystem.adknowledge.com/se...=67.29.139.197

    This is the request format I am using for https protocol :

    "GET /search.php?afid=9999&kw=accredited+college+degree& size=10&ip=67.29.139.197 Secure-HTTP/1.4\r\n"
    "Content-Privacy-Domain: CMS\r\n"
    "Content-Type: message/http\r\n"
    "\r\n"

    and I used this also

    "GET /search.php?afid=9999&kw=accredited+college+degree& size=10&ip=67.29.139.197 Secure * Secure-HTTP/1.4\r\n"
    "Host: bidsystem.adknowledge.com\r\n"
    "Accept: *_/*\r\n"
    "Connection: Close\r\n"
    "\r\n"

    I tried with the port 80 and 443 .

    I am getting this message :

    HTTP/1.1 302 Found
    Date: Thu, 03 Aug 2006 16:38:33 GMT

    Realistically, it is not going to be practical to implement an https client manually using sockets. You need to use a library such as libcurl or WinINet (on Windows).
