On what system? What is your OS, HTTP server, and PHP setup (server
module, FastCGI, etc.)?

And what exactly are you trying to do, have PHP serve pages over HTTPS
or have PHP access data located elsewhere over HTTPS? The former has
nothing to do with PHP; it's a HTTP server configuration task. For
example, in Apache, it's done by writing appropriate entries into
httpd.conf (basically, it's all about enabling mod_ssl). The latter
requires that you have the OpenSSL extension enabled.

Sorry to be so sketchy, but it's really not clear what you are trying
to accomplish.
