If the information is sensitive, why are you trying to fake a POST
submission? A POST can be received from anywhere. SSL is just
encrypting it, not verifying the client is the same. I would use
session variables to store information you need to access from page
to page. That way you can verify that you are talking to the same
computer from the first two pages.
