hi,

how can i use php to workout if a user is using https ?

basically i want to make certain that my users get redirected from a non secure site to a secure one

any ideas?

maybe you could try something like this (untested):

Code:

if (preg_match("/^https/i",  $_SERVER['SERVER_PROTOCOL'])) {
   //  your code here
}

i take it then looking at that code ' preg_match ' is the equlivilent of grep at the command line?

'preg' stands for 'perl regular expression'.
