Dear my friends...
I want to use "<input type="password" ...>" HTML tag. But I am affraid that somebody taps my password. So I want to use https instead of http. I want the users type their password into the input tag through https. But I don't know how to implement that. My homepage is on a server of a webhosting company. Is it only like this," <a href="login.php:810">Click here to do login</a> "?
Here is my "/etc/services" file. prabu@mesinprabu:~> grep -n "https" /etc/services 810:https 443/tcp # http protocol over TLS/SSL 811:https 443/udp # http protocol over TLS/SSL
Which number does actually pointing to https port ?
Thank you very much in advance.,
The 810 and 811 are line numbers (you used the -n option on grep). The 443 is the port number. But you have several questions that need answered. Does you webhosting company support HTTPS? What do you have in the way of a certificate for the server for the SSL? How much are you willing to pay to do this (for the certificate, etc) or is this a personal project and a free certificate is good enough? Will your webhosting company accept a self signed certificate if that is used? Do you have access to configure the https portion of the server or will the webhosting company do that for you? The short answer is <a href="https://hostname/login.php">Click here to do login</a>, but all the other stuff must come first. -- Kelly L. Fulks Home Account
