Check out combining 'prototype' (a javascript library) using the AJAX.Request or AJAX.Updater function with your PHP file (if you actually need to use PHP in the first place). Here's a good reference: http://www.sergiopereira.com/articles/prototype.js.html. If you are just reading it from a text file however, you won't need PHP as javascript can access text files directly (i think).

It's more of a question about whether it is possible or not, as my class handles all the stuff I require-- I *can* connect to https (using ssl) etc, so that is not a problem. So, for example, there is a third party login using an https server. I can authenticate to this using my http class, which presumably means that everything going over the link is encrypted. My question is what happens if I am connecting to a regular http server, is there a way to encrypt the transferral of information from my site to theirs? At the same time however, if they are not providing a secure service to login with, then does it matter that mine is going unencrypted? Any comments would still be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi, I am doing some form emulation from my website to a third party website. I have to send a username and password to the 3rd party login using fsockopen. The 3rd party may not necessarily be secure (though in some cases it is), and when it is I am using my http class to connect using ssl. In the cases where it is not secure, I still would like to encrypt the information (perhaps using ssl or some other means) however I am not entirely sure whether this is possible. I can't encrypt using some 2 way hash as it needs to be plain when it reaches the 3rd party. Any info would be appreciated.
