I wrote a handler to do it.
(BTW, I hope this helps, but PLEASE feel free to give criticisms and
suggestions. I'm new to Apache/modperl/etc. =o)
#~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
# module for Apache/mod_perl PerlPostReadRequestHandler to redirect
# users on the nonsecure port over to SSL (hopefully saving bookmarks)
#______________________________________________________________________
package Apache::PortCorrect;
use strict;
use Apache::Constants qw( :response :methods );
use Carp ();
$SIG{__WARN__} = \&Carp::cluck;
sub handler {
my($r,$s,$url,$args,$uri);
$r = shift; # the request object
return OK if 443 == $r->get_server_port;
(undef,$url,undef) = split(/\s+/o, $r->the_request);
# allow HTTP:// access to some core pages and to graphics
return OK if $url =~ m{ ^(?:/
| /(public|teampages|pics|avgrates)/.*
| /(home|cook)[.]shtml
| .*[.](gif|jpg)
)$
}ixo;
# else redirect to the secure server
$uri = "https://$our_server.com" . $url; # edited :o)
$args = $r->args;
$uri .= "?$args" if $args;
$r->custom_response(MOVED,$uri);
return MOVED;
}
1; # guarantee return code for load

In the config file, I just said (with minimal edit):
PerlModule Apache::PortCorrect
PerlPostReadRequestHandler Apache::PortCorrect

Hope that helps.
