[thelist] IE and redirect to SSL

[Ken Schaefer]

>From the posted logfiles it's a little difficult to comment because we don't
have any idea of what your stylesheets etc are, so we don't know what's
missing.

I believe you are saying that the logfiles record:
a) the initial request over HTTP (which gets redirected)
b) the subsequent request for the SSL secured page (on port 82)
c) *no* subsequent requests by the browser. Alternatively, can you explain
what the following requests actually mean?
192.168.1.32 - - [21/Jun/2006:19:30:18 -0700] "\x16\x03" 200 7744 "-" "-"
As there appears to be no HTTP verb, user-agent etc recorded

Can you post a copy of the actual HTML of the webpage in question?

Cheers
Ken

: 
: Anyone seen this before?
: 
: I have a site that when you click the "login" link will do a http
: redirect to the SSL version of the site.  I'm using correct URLs in
: my redirect and the fetched https page has all style sheets,
: javascript and images uisng full, absolute URLs.
: 
: 
: Now, for testing I run on port 82 and 1443.  Works fine in Firefox,
: and Opera, but in IE I get this in my logs:
