SSL questions
I have not seen or found anything but is there a way to route::SSL links? An option in the html-link(link, array( ssl = true)) or anything like that? Click login which needs ssl but if your on a non ssl page how do you force it without redirect? Some links need to be ssl where some do not. I have seen a lot of forceSSL functions:: read location if not https redirect to https// $this-here type set up. Has anyone seen a good component for SSL (google just gives me 2007 older ones that I could find samples of and nothing that seemed quite promising) Tips / tricks?

Re: SSL questions
How about you just extend the html helper and add your own link function-
something like:
function sslLink($title, $url = null, $options = array(),
$confirmMessage = false){
if(!$url){
$url = $title;
}
//manually set ssl domain, in case it's different than current
domain
$sslDomain = 'https://yourdomain.com';
//Check to make sure passed url isn't already a valid url
if(is_array($url) || !strstr($url, 'http')){
$url = $sslDomain . Router::url($url);
}
return $this-Html-link($title, $url, $options, $confirmMessage);
}

Re: SSL questions
Have you tried the Security component's requireSecure()? It will let you determine that based on actions. May eliminate the need to extend or customize the HTML helper.

RE: SSL questions
Been trying a few things but with Security Component I get never ending loops in the browser with blackhole forceSSL as instructed in various guides / tutorials so for now I am just moving on with other parts of the site.

Re: RE: SSL questions
You will want to use the security component to make sure that pages are only accessed via ssl... The sslLink function will generate https links but it won't prevent people from going to the non secure version of the page. Additionally, if it is only a few actions that you require to be secure, you can use .htaccess and mod_rewrite to force ssl on certain pages. -- Sam Bernard sambernard.net -- Our newest site for the community: CakePHP Video Tutorials http://tv.cakephp.org Check out the new CakePHP Questions site http://ask.cakephp.org and help others with their CakePHP related questions.
