Hey,

I am a student/web developer and in one of my apps I am trying to
implement digital signing of the form data. AFAIK, the way to do this
is using crypto.signText. As a test for this I am using the e.g
available at http://docs.sun.com/source/816-6152-10/ viz.

(if I shouldn't have added the code in the mail, please mention it in
the reply )

-------------------------------------------------------------------------
<html>
<head>
<script>
var foo = crypto.signText("Bill of Sale\n--------------------\n3 Tires
     $300.00\n1 Axle       $795.00\n2 Bumpers
$500.00\n--------------------\nTotal Price $1595.00", "ask");
</script>
</head>
<body>
This is an HTML page<p>
<script>
document.write(foo);
</script>
</body>
</html>
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For creating the PKCS#12 file I used the
http://www.openssl.org/docs/apps/CA.pl.html#EXAMPLES page and did
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
perl -S CA.pl -newca
perl -S CA.pl -newreq
perl -S CA.pl -signreq
perl -S CA.pl -pkcs12 "My Test Certificate"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

I then imported the .p12 file into Firefox , where it said "your certs
and private keys successfully imported"

On loading that HTML page I get

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 The site is requested that you sign the following text message

Signing Certificate

Stored in: Software Security Device

To confirm please enter password ...

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


But on entering the password I get

error:internalError

Any ideas on what could be the problem and how I could fix it? Any
help at all is very much appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
devdatta
