Problem solved. Thank you all very much for such quick responses.
The solution was to get ssleay32.dll from the PHP 5 ZIP distribution and
put in my PHP directory.
For the record:
With Windows and PHP 5 all that is needed to use the https protocol in
file_get_contents is to make sure that both
libeay32.dll
ssleay32.dll
are on the Windows path, which in my case includes the path to my PHP
directory, so I just put them there.
Excellent! Many thanks.
