Re: Redirecting to HTTPS

If the form itself is on an insecure page, and you want the form to be submitted to a secture script, you can simply set the action= to the HTTPS URL.As for redirecting to a secure site, CGI.pm's redirection works fine for HTTPS URLs:
print $query->redirect('https://...') unless ($cgi->https());

How do you pass session around? hidden fields: works. cookies: I think http cookies are also sent to https. url field: works. Keep in mind that login.cgi should not submit to http: and then redirect to https:... It's already sent the login info in the clear!	[reply]
