Hi all,
I tried with no result to establish a connection to a https web site.
I've never had any problem with plain http, but I would like to use gawk to
get data from a secured web site.
Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

done in the awk script itself.
It would be much easier to retrieve the page using wget or cups,
they both can handle https. Then process the result in awk.
Alternatively, you might want to run some local proxy to translate
https to http, vice versa, and connect gawk to that proxy.

Thank you for your answer; I feared this was the cause.

Anyway, I would appreciate the GAWK manual would be clearer on this issue -
SSL web services are increasing in popularity...

In article <5606afec$0$23750$e4fe...@news.xs4all.nl>,
One could always put out a series of cups and hope that the data falls into
them.
