Alan, thanks for the rapid response! That is how i used to have it configured. Let me explain the use-case a bit more. The site is driving a number of Facebook canvas apps and as FB accounts can run in 'secure' (SLL) mode or not we have to dynamically switch URL schemes between HTTP/HTTPS depending on user on the site. I have a bit of code like this: <cfset variables.prot="http://";><cfif CGI.HTTPS EQ "on"> <cfset variables.prot = "https://";></cfif> but as Jetty (in the config you describe) sees HTTP traffic - CGI.HTTPS always equals OFF - even for a HTTPS originated request. This is the bit i cant sort out - so why i was trying to push the HTTPS request back to Jetty. I'm sure there is a solution!
