Udv / Greetings! I have a problem with non TLS enabled browsers. For my site it is required to use TLS. But most users do not have it. Is it possible to use a clientside javascript or anything to find out (before it is being dropped on the https) if the user, - while accessing the http version of the page, - has TLS enabed or not? And if not, I display a message to enable it, if it would like to continue. I could reduce my phone-calls by 90% by this way. thank you in advance! -- Éliás Tamás / Thomas Elias Okleveles mérnök-informatikus / Master of Science in Information Technology (MSC) Vizsgázott Cisco hálózati mérnök / Certified Cisco Network Engineer Vizsgázott IBM UDB DB2 Adatbázis Adminisztrátor / Certified IBM UDB DB2 Database Administrator Rendszerintegrátor - Rendszergazda / IT System Integrator - System administrator mailto: elias.tamas () uni-pen hu Tel.: +3630/4971626 ; ICQ UIN: 206-714-459 ; SKYPE: "elias.tamas" OpenPGP public key: http://pszinfo.hu/elias.tamas.asc Quote: "Too many people making too many problems!"
