Ok so I am using XAMPP and it has ssl configured into it and all that. Now I am making a site and want one section to be in using SSL and all that encryption stuff. This isnt a final product website but more of a practice site.
After reading tutorials and all sorts of other stuff about ssl I still dont quite understand. I want to make this one page secure and I want that the only way to access said page is through https. I don't know how to do any of this as when I go to https://localhost/anysite.php it just shows the regular page and has an icon saying that the site has unauthenticated content.
Does anyone know of a good tutorial for a guy who takes forever learning new stuff or maybe you already know how to do it and want to tell me ;P. Either would be fantastic.

I'd go directly to the source: http://www.modssl.org/docs/2.8/ssl_howto.html and http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_ssl.html
And if you're looking for a certificate... http://www.cacert.org might be of interest...

Ok first I am trying to keep a page from loading unless you have the certificate and everything. I tried to keep an entire directory off but no such luck, I did this and put it in my httpd.conf file:
which I figured would allow all but the /cart/ directory to be viewed without a certificate and encryption and stuff, no luck. it does nothing.
I will begin to tackle the whole 'this certificate is for this site, let it be allowed' thing now.
Code: Select all
SSLCipherSuite ALL:!ADH:RC4+RSA:+HIGH:+MEDIUM:+LOW:+SSLv2:+EXP:+eNULL
<Location /cart/>
SSLCipherSuite HIGH:MEDIUM
