pro_vb thread: RE: Sending XML over HTTPS in VB6


Message #1 by "Sanjay R. Patel" <spatel@t...> on Fri, 5 Apr 2002 07:51:14 -0500
Hello everyone!  I am VERY NEW to XML and have the following task that needs
to get done yesterday (but I think this is more of a VB6 question anyways).
Basically, I am sending a transaction over HTTPS to an XML-based payment
gateway, more details can be found at the following URL regarding the
gateway if needed:
http://www.hmsblue.com/ipg/docs/usingXML.html

Given that I know the server address and port to send to, how do I use
VBS/ASP or VB6 to do the following?
Send an XML transmission as the body of an HTTP GET transaction. The content
type of the request should be "text/xml".

Furthermore, once the server receives my XML, they will send an XML
transmission back to me as the body of an HTTP GET transaction.  How to I
parse out the results in the XML elements?  Is there a component that helps
with this?

Essentially, my main problem is the HTTPS connection to use and interact
with to send and receive HTTPS requests.

Your help is greatly appreciated...

Thanks,
-Aaron
