Redirect http:// to https:// in PHP Script

[mpbabaji]

Hi,

I found this code in phpbuilder forum and it worked perfectly in redirecting http:// to https://

---

if($HTTPS != 'on') {

header("Location: https://".$HTTP_HOST."/".$REQUEST_URI);

But i get a weird problem.

http://mysite.com/

is redirected to

https://mysite.com//

......... ie., with two slashes at the end. ...............

Pl let me know how to correct this.
.htaccess redirection is very slow.

.htaccess, should be a faster better option, it takes pace before a file has to go through the php engine. As to the slash, theres one added in the code, so why not just remove it?

Thanks Dagon, it worked.

I removed slash from the code. I have no idea why they added the extra slash in the code. And previously i used .htaccess and it took a long time for the site to load and so i looked for the alternatives.

You helped me thanks. Issue resolved 🙂
