I believe this works if you have openssl module loaded in Apache (and you should) and the URL you post to is HTTPS?
The server should handle the details.

That can do a POST, but it isn't using SSL, so any data transmitted in
that connection is in plain text on the wire.

That may be okay, depending on what is being sent in that initial
exchange, if the user ends up on an SSL page before they put in
anything sensitive.

But I'd be a bit leery that anybody snooping would be able to snoop
out the beginning of your eCommerce Process, and possibly forge
requests on your behalf or learn a bit too much about how your site
handles the money/fulfillment.
