Right. Tested and found $_SERVER['HTTPS'] has to be 'on'  :)

But, there is something in the code Jochem wrote that bothers me for a while:

if(isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS']=='on') {
   echo 'you are secure(-ish?)';   }

Doesn't
$_SERVER['HTTPS']=='on'
automatically means
isset($_SERVER['HTTPS'])
?


indeed - I'm a bit of correctness freak  like that - without the isset
an E_NOTICE is generated - which you could supress:

if('on' == @$_SERVER['HTTPS']) {
	// yes!
}

(others are speed freaks - and will
probably go for the E_NOTICE :-) - although I have no idea whether thats even any faster
than calling isset() as the E_NOTICE generation must all have _some_ overhead,
and how error supression affects performance. regardless the difference if probably
almost immeasurable.)

I mean, if $_SERVER['HTTPS'] exists doesn't mean it's equal to 'on'
but if $_SERVER['HTTPS'] == 'on' IT MEANS $_SERVER['HTTPS'] exists

why then
if(isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS']=='on')

Thanks Marco!
:)

I was looking for something like this on phpinfo() but didn't found?




That's because it shows up only if you are under HTTPS! :-)



AFAICT tell you should check whether the value is actually set to 'on'
(IIRC a post by Rasmus):

e.g.

if(isset($_SERVER['HTTPS']) && $_SERVER['HTTPS']=='on') {
    echo 'you are secure(-ish?)';   }

SIDENOTE REGARDING BEEBLEX.COM:

I just added a bookmark in firefox to beeblex.com as follows

http://beeblex.com/search.php?d=ALLDB&s=%s
and I gave it a keyword of 'beeb'

now I can go to firefox and type 'beeb HTTPS' to get an direct hit -
so now there is no excuse not to be using Marco's cool new resource :-)

IIRC, if you're using Apache you can check

If (isset ($_SERVER['HTTPS']))

Hi,
I need to check does URL use http or https?

Right now I use this code:

if(preg_match('/https:/', $_SERVER['SCRIPT_URI']) == false)
{
 header('location: [URL]https://www.test.com/test.php[/URL]');
 exit;
}

but I am sure there is much better solution.
:)
