Not sure if anyone is interested in this anymore, but I had a requirement for cross-domain scripting that was "GET"ing data from an https (SSL) webpage. For those that *are* interested, I have stumbled across a solution.
The solution builds on Jeff Crossett's suggestion of passing a url to a LotusScript agent which means that my solution will only work on wintel - apologies for those on other O/S environments.
If you use Jeff's code then the Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP object returns the error:
"msxml3.dll: The certificate authority is invalid or incorrect"
The magic line that prevents the above error?
xmlhttp.setoption(2,13056) ' ignore SSL errors
So the code you need is:
'initialise relevant objects, including the string url which is the path to your https website e.g. url = "https://www.blah.com"
Set xmlhttp = CreateObject("Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP")

Call xmlhttp.open("GET", url, False)
Call xmlhttp.send()
print xmlhttp.responseText
Beautiful!!!
