I am trying to POST a document using HTTPS using the postURL function and getting -5 Unsupported secure (HTTPS) connection attempted. Has anyone been succesful with this function? I began trying to make this work with PB7 but have since moved to PB8 and still have the same problem.

Have tried supplying the port number in the PB8 version but still have no success. It does get some intelligible returns from the server if I use HTTP instead of HTTPS in the URL.

 
PostURL doesn't support HTTPS/SSL. It barely supports HTTP in my opinion. (forget it if you have some kind of cluster)

We wrote our own java DLL using MS/J++ to do HTTP posts from PB6-PB7. It supports HTTPS. It's ugly, but it's been in production for 2 years.
