The firefox plugin won't show anything because PHP isn't running under
the browser. cURL will run separate from the browser and not interact
with your browser.
If you're loading a web page with PHP code, that web page will be
running on a server somewhere, and that server would be connecting to
the site. If you're running PHP as a CLI (Command Line Interface), then
your computer will be connecting, but you won't see anything in a browser.
What you will need to do is use cURL to request the page, parse the
response, then send the necessary information back to the server. On
some sites it's pretty easy, but others make it very difficult or almost
impossible by requiring things like javascript generated values, CAPTCHA
codes, etc.
cURL works fine with https. The most common problem is not setting cURL
up to accept the server's certificate (which provides an error message).
http://unitstep.net/blog/2009/05/05/using-curl-in-php-to-access-https-ssltl s-protected-sites/
has a good description on how to set up cURL to accept the certificate.
Other than setting the proper options in cURL, there really isn't any
difference in accessing URIs with http or https protocols.
P.S. Please don't top post. Thanks.
