I'm writing an Air application which uses sockets. I need to connect to nexus.passport.com:443 using SSL. Is this possible? If so, how?
I use JavaScript for the programming.

Adobe AIR 2.0 has added securesockets:

According to this article on Adobe's site, you can't currently do this with sockets, but rather must use the URLRequest API.
The only current limitation is that there is not currently an SSL Socket implementation in AIR. For secure communication with a server you will be limited to HTTPS using the URLRequest API.
