<br />
<b>Syntax</b><br />
<br />
create[[SecureRequest]](<i>URL</i>, <i>http_method</i>, <i>request_handle</i>, <i>security_context</i>)<br />
<br />
<b>Description</b><br />
<br />
The create[[SecureRequest]] function behaves exactly the same as the createRequest()<br />
function, except for the fourth parameter, a handle to a security<br />
context, which is used to associate the security context with the request. If the<br />
URL does not start with “https” then the parameter is ignored. If the URL<br />
starts with “https” but an invalid context handle or no handle is provided,<br />
the function will abort and return with an error status.<br />
<br />
<b>Parameters</b><br />
<br />
The following table describes each parameter of the syntax.<br />
<pre><br />
Parameter Description<br />
========= ===========<br />
URL A string containing the URL for a resource on a web server. An<br />
accepted URL must follow the specified syntax defined in RFC<br />
1738. The general format is:<br />
http://<host>:<port>/<path>?<searchpart>. <br />
The host can be either a name string or IP address. The port is <br />
the port number to connect to, which usually defaults to 80 and <br />
is often omitted, along with the pre-ceding colon. The path tells <br />
the web server which file you want, and, if omitted, means “home<br />
page” for the system. The searchpart can be used to send additional <br />
information to a web server.<br />
http_method A string which indicates the method to be performed on the resource. <br />
request_handle A handle to the request object.<br />
securityContext A handle to the security context (see create[[SecurityContext]] function).<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
The following table describes the status of each return code.<br />
<pre><br />
Return Code Status<br />
=========== ======<br />
0 Success.<br />
1 Invalid URL (Syntactically).<br />
2 Invalid method (For HTTP 1.0, only GET[[/POST/HEAD]])<br />
</pre><br />
<br />
<br />
<b>Note</b>: If URL does include a searchpart, it must be in its encoded format (space is<br />
converted into +, and other non-alphanumeric characters are converted into %HH<br />
format. See add[[RequestParameter]]() for more details). However, host and path are<br />
allowed to have these “unsafe” characters. [[UniVerse]] BASIC will encode them before<br />
communicating with the web server.</div>Conversion script
