I have been experimenting without much success. The browser of course will indicate that not all components on the page are secure because of the fact that the embedded links in the page have http in them. As soon as I make the change to the https protocol, the links will not resolve.
of course not... zope isn't running https.
Do I have to somehow make the ZServer also SSL compliant in some manner in order for it to figure out what https means. Any help or comments would be very much appreciated. TIA.
The usual way to do this is to run zope behind an SSL server, e.g. Apache. There are many documents available about this. An alternative approach adds SSL support directly to Zope: http://www.zope.org/Members/Ioan/ZopeSSL For a totally different approach - including content from zope directly into a JSP - see here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/pstream/ -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com Look!
