$_POST variable is a secured variable. If you want, you can do encrypting on the contents of that variable then send it to another computer. Then from that another computer, will decrypt the contents of the variable.
Thanks for the replies. I have a few questions though.
If I buy an SSL certificate from uk2 (my hosting company) will all connections to my server be secure, even if it's from another server and not a browser? Also. Would someone please be kind enough to post a basic CURL example which sends some variables and gets the resulting page?
I'm using CURL with the code in my previous post, but I'm not sure about security. If the API server has SSL enabled what curl options would I need to define on the clientside of the API code? Is it as easy as just specifying that I want SSL enabled and letting it sort itself out or do I have to specify certificate information? I don't have a certificate yet so I'm essentially just checking how complex it could be to implement it when I do have one.
