POST (and GET) with https

Get is possible with ReceiveHTTPMemory().
But at the moment it is not possible (with inbuild stuff) to send a POST request using https.
What I would like to see is that we can use https when using OpenNetworkConnection().

Copy that. I haven't found anything that helps me in doing https calls under PureBasic. Only some payable external DLL of size 9MB...

That's not true.
On windows only you can use the API.
Or crossplatform you can use libcurl. Simply import the necesarry functions.

In this thread
http://www.purebasic.fr/english/viewtop ... 12&t=62272
is a pbi for PB > 5.4x
which uses the 'inbuild' libcurl.

In-build HTTP functions all support TLS and SSL though I haven't tested certificate revocation handling.
The POST is certainly something sitting at the top of my things_i'm_amazed_aren't_in_pb_because_they_are_so_needed things.. I was surprised when it wasn't in 5.50 B1 so we could round out the HTTP library; don't forget headers with both GET and POST which are only slightly less needed if you interact with the web in your software.
