Re: how to check http:// or https:// ?

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') -afan Jochem Maas wrote:

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'])) You can also check this thread: http://beeblex.com/lists/index.php/php.general/190410?h=%24_SERVER%5B%27HTTP S%27%5D -- BeebleX - The PHP Search Engine http://beeblex.com On 8/5/05 2:05 PM, "afan@afan.net" <afan@afan.net> wrote:

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. :)
