HTTPS is a protocol: HyperText Transfer Protocol - Secure. It
means using SSL (Secure Socket Layers) on an HTTP connection (via
TCP/IP, etc.... BVDs.... ;-P).
Just because your files reside in an https/ directory doesn't mean
anything if there's no SSL certificate and secure connection - usually
on port 443 as opposed to the non-secure HTTP port 80.
