I cannot seem to find any examples of using the processing client to access an SSL protected website. Here is my code. It just returns a 400 error. Is the Processing default client capable of doing SSL or should I look to something else?
TIA
Code Snip:
```
String data = "";
c = new Client(this, "api.nasa.gov", 443);
c.write("GET /planetary/earth/imagery?lon=-105.3&lat=31.7&api_key=mykey HTTPS/1.0\n");
delay(1000);
while (c.available() > 0) { // Read data coming from into the client....
data += c.readString(); // ...and put it in a String
println(data);
}
```
