SSL and Digital Signatures

Post by simonmlewis »

Can you store files on a web server, via SSL? If so, how?
Not to data process, but to secure a folder.
Love PHP. Love CSS. Love learning new tricks too.

You should be using SFTP instead of FTP. SFTP transfers files via SSL. FTP is not secure.

That's not what I mean.
Ok let's say we use SFTP to upload the files, that doesn't mean the site runs on SSL, or does it? Would every url be HTTPS ?
