No, this is not possible since the encryption is performed by the server and the browser and the proxy only sees a stream of encrypted bytes. There is no way that WWWOFFLE can decode the data when using ssl. This option in WWWOFFLE is provided as a convenience for people who want to proxy all SSL requests, perhaps for logging of https server hostnames or as part of a network firewall. -- Andrew. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Andrew M.
