detecting SSL links

Anon

Is there a way to pick up ssl posts in code?

For example, when a client clieck on "secure" order - we take them through a link which is :

However, if the client clicks on any other link on the page which isn't set with full URL like http://domainname/contact - the client is directed to the contact section under SSL.

Is there a way to detect the SSL link? - then we can take care of it from that point on. My problem is simply picking up on http - or https.

Thank you.

This is on your server, right? Then you should know which port the server is listening on for SSL. In our case, we just say:

if ($SERVER_PORT != '443')
...

Even better, check:

if ($HTTPS != 'on') ...

Which works under Apache at least...

Thanks a lot guys - both solutions fit the bill perfectly.
