UBB.Developers Forums UBB.threads 6 V6 Modifications V6 Mod Ideas HTTP/HTTPS Suggestion

This is mainly pointed towards Rick... But do you think future version can use relative links instead of hard coded links??

This will make it so I can have it working in both http and https mode which is very important to me. Some stuff I run via my site needs to be encrypted for security reasons. Not to mention I did suggest your software to my company to use. And the company I work for has to have things secure due to it is for the government. So what do you think??

hmmm.... since the beginning I run ubb.t with relative links (actually starting at the root-dir). Works perfect. Just set

$config['phpurl'] = "";

in config.inc.php. There are just two or three other files where one line needs to be changed, that does a http-redirect:

header ("Location: (...blahblah)

changed this into:

code:
#added $dom & changed header() [M.Hoeschen]:
   $dom = find_environmental("HTTP_HOST");
   header ("Location: http://$dom/viewmessages.php?Cat=$Cat&box=$box&PHPSESSID=$PHPSESSID");

Well found out my problem... my https was on a differant server domain/directory structure... However still the cookie is an http cookie... what if mid way in browsing they need to switch to https... just my 2 cents I dunno... I am doing so much coding on differant projects it is sad and I get things confused...
