labrador2005 Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Hi,I have built a website that contains a form. When a visitor fills in the form he can send it back to me by using the emailbutton.Can anyone tell me how I make sure that the information the visitor sends back to me is encoded/protected correctly.What script do I need to include in the html-page.I have found a lot of information about SSL-protocol and S-Http but I do not know how to include it in my website...Help!

boen_robot Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 An SSL protocol is not something you "include" in your site. If an https page is included in a frame or something, the user can never be sure if the whole thing is "valid" scince he/she won't be able to see the lock on the browser. Why? Because the browser can only see the status of the current page. The one which holds the frame, not the pages inside the frames.The SSL protocol it something your host must provide you with. To provide you with such a thing you would also have to pay for an SSL certificate to him or a third party issuer. If the host supports SSL he should provide you with an interface with which you can apply the certificate to the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am making my first steps on building a website. It is a lot of fun to do. But there is so much still to learn! I had really no idea of what to do. Now I know I have to ask the server for information on SSL protocol, thanks again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you wonder why I asked the same question twice...I wasn't sure how to put in into words therefore I refrashed the question....It's not easy to make something clear in another language Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
