To force upgrading to SSL on many of my sites, I use a combination of PHP's header("Location: https://xxxxx";) and rewrite magic under Apache.

The PHP header stuff came about when I was experimenting with Cherokee.

Perhaps Cherokee could offer a built in SSL upgrade using the (not recommended, but supported) 301 response?

Hello Dennis,

None of my browsers worked and I'm using pretty much all the latest ones. Do any browsers support this "upgrade" of the connection to SSL?

I have a very valid point here.

The "Upgrade Required" response was implemented a few years ago. At that moment none of the spread browsers supported it, although I suppose they would add the feature eventually. Reality has proven me wrong though. Time has passed and there is not a single mass-market browser with support for this RFE... so I guess we just ought to drop this feature in the sake of clarity.
