Hi Chris,
If you were to implement this on a PC using LabVIEW, utilizing ActiveX commands to encrypt SSL for Internet Explorer certainly sounds like a promising and feasible method of accomplishing the functionality you seek. However, I beleive that ActiveX is for Windows only. Thus, Field Point does not recognize ActiveX since it has an entirely different OS architecture (PHARLAP).
My suggestion would be that instead of trying communicate with a webserver from your FP, perhaps have a seperate PC do the webserver communication. Then have your FP communicate with this PC; this way, the PC acts like a "translator."
If you still would like to attempt to have your FP communicate with webserver, I believe you'll have to implement everything via TCP. This option sounds like the more ambitious undertaking.
I hope this discussion helps. And good luck!
