So one example is that you are in a wifi cafe and you want to browse sites which may be available on both http and https. One example is when you browse google calendar. By default you will get http even after logging in over https. It doesn't really matter anyways and I should just code this up for myself. I was just wondering if something already existed...that whole code reuse concept...you know :-/ On 10/12/07, Valdis.Kletnieks () vt edu <Valdis.Kletnieks () vt edu> wrote:

I would already have a firewall or some other layer7 filtering device blocking unencrypted traffic. The addon "Better Gmail" does something similar to this, with the "force HTTPS" option, but not exactly...What should this hypothetical extension do if it automagically redirects http: to https:, but the target server is something that is only listening on port 80 because it doesn't have https: enabled? https://www.cnn.com just sorta sits there for me.
