Thank you! This is exactly what I was looking for. PERFECT! God you have to sift through so much crap to find useful stuff.

Also, Thank you Darrell, Andrew and John for your additional improvements.

Actually, come to think of it. You should use the 301 redirect syntax in your htaccess file as well:

RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTPS} !on
RewriteRule (.*) https://%{HTTP_HOST}%{REQUEST_URI} [L,R=301]

Thanks Andrew.

I’ve been using:

if(empty($_SERVER["HTTPS"])) {

That also works but I will try the @ sign too.

Jeff, You can add an @ sign before $_SERVER['HTTPS']. When your not using ssl HTTPS is not defined, which is why you are getting that error. The @ sign should suppress that error.

if(@$_SERVER['HTTPS'] !== “on”)

For some reason, checking for “on” wasn’t working for me. You may have to write the code as follows:

if($_SERVER['HTTPS'] == false) {
// redirect to secure site
}

I’ve been using ‘if($_SERVER['HTTPS']!=”on”)’ for a very long time with no issues.
I just started noticing “PHP Notice: Undefined index: HTTPS…” in my error log.

If I use ‘if( $_SERVER['HTTPS'] !== “on” )’, what should I change to stop the PHP notices? I tried addibng isset and !isset but it does not work.

Thanks!

@Chris,

i’m sure that it is a bit late, but try to debug the code . that helps a lot for rapid prototyping.

hello everyone,
I am having problem regarding redirect of http to https. I have checked $_SERVER['HTTPS'] but it return: “Notice: Undefined index: HTTPS”. How to solve this problem? I need to enable/set https or not?
