SSL vs NON-SSL

[stephanes]

Hi,

 

I have a live chat widget. To have the widget to work in SSL pages, I had to change in all .php this: if(!strstr($hostdomain,"http")){ $hostdomain="http://".$hostdomain; } to if(!strstr($hostdomain,"https")){ $hostdomain="https://".$hostdomain; }.

 

The problem is when I change the http to https in the code above, now the widget don't appear in non-ssl pages.

 

So my question is how can I modify the code below to have it to work with both http and https ?

Have a look at the $_SERVER super-global array. There are a couple of entries there that can tell you if the user requested through HTTP or HTTPS. Then build your domain variable appropriately.

Thank you for your answer but to be honest I don't understand. Just giving me a link to the php manual is no help in my case.

Then you best start learning to read manual pages.

'HTTPS'

Set to a non-empty value if the script was queried through the HTTPS protocol.

Probably I'm just a the wrong place. I was just asking for help. I don't understand the purpose to register here if the only help I can get is to tell me to read the php manual.

We expect people to do some work and ask decent questions.

Even without that you were given the relevant information already.
