Demonstrates how to require that the SSL server certificate's domain matches the intended domain. PHP ActiveX

<?php

$success = 0;

// This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$http = new COM("Chilkat.Http");

// Call SetSslCertRequirement to require that the SSL server certificate's domain
// matches only the domain we are intending to communicate with.

// In this example we will test with the URL https://wrong.host.badssl.com/
// which intentionally has an SSL certificate that does not match "wrong.host.badssl.com"

$http->SetSslCertRequirement('SAN','wrong.host.badssl.com');

// Also validate the server cert..
$http->RequireSslCertVerify = 1;

// Try sending the request.  It should fail within the SSL/TLS handshake
// because the server's certificate does not match the domain "wrong.host.badssl.com"
$html = $http->quickGetStr('https://wrong.host.badssl.com/');
if ($http->LastMethodSuccess == 0) {
    print $http->LastErrorText . "\n";
