Subject: question about jsse1.0

Please be patient with me because I am new to java and network.
My current assignment is to get a web page via java programs.
I know how to get a page via http protocol.
create a URL, openCOnnection,
if URLConnection is HttpURLConnection then
read from URL.openstream

How do I do the similar thing for https?
I have downloaded jsse1.0, but I do not see any document for
the HttpsURLConnection class.
What is the sequences to get the page or post information to
a page via https? Do I need to check the provider first?
I would like the same function as a browser does without user interface.
It will be saving me a lot of times if I can have some examples.

Thanks for the help in advance!
