SSL & relative urls.

[Dave Brown]

Hi all, I've got a webapp running with apache 2/ mod jk2 and tomcat 5.5

I'm just starting to implement some security in the site, so when for example a user registers, the form post will (my intention) go to a HTTPS address..

The question I have is , is there anyway to still keep a relative URL for the post, at the moment, it goes to "/ValidateRegistration".. If I can, I'd like to avoid a fully qualified URL.

Thanks

Yes, the HttpServletRequest object has all the methods you need for this:

 
             System.out.println("https://"
                 + request.getServerName()
                 + ((HttpServletRequest)request).getRequestURI());
