SSL forms

VK
Hi,

A form is being called on many different pages(VB.NET). We have to now
make the form as HTTPS, since some sensitive information is being
collected on form. I tried creating a meta refresh tag on form1.aspx as
is
<meta http-equiv="refresh"
content="0;https://<www.myurl.com>/form/form1.aspx"> but that doesn't
seem to be working - any ideas?
Many thanks.

Try :

(url keyword missing). Also why 0µ. It could be also annying if someone
enters osmething and it fires (what is the reason for refreshing ?)...

thanks for reply.

Reason for refreshing - so that form page from http:// shows ups as
https://

All the other pages that reference this form are linked as http:// -
this way i have to change only this form page.

Ah ok. The other option would be to have the page checking its own protocol
and redirecting itself to the same page using https...

how would we do that?

The refresh meta tag requires a we specify seconds it should be
refreshed in and since this is a long form it is not a good idea to do
that. How do refresh a page with https protocol?

Many thanks
