[Web-SIG] newbie help with httpsconnection

[Jeff Peery]

Hello,
  I'm stumped. I'm trying to run the following bit of code in a cgi script. 
   
      httpServ = httplib.HTTPSConnection('https://secure.authorize.net')
    # connect to gateway
    httpServ.connect()
    # serve request
    params = urllib.urlencode(fm, '|')
    httpServ.request('POST', '/gateway/transact.dll', params)
    # close connection
    httpServ.close()
   
  I get this error when httpSerc.connect() is called:
   
  gaierror: (-2, 'Name or service not known') 
      args = (-2, 'Name or service not known') 
   
  what am I doing wrong? Thanks!
   
  Jeff
